 The Pirates have committed multiple errors in five straight games, their longest streak since doing so in five straight from June 7-11, 1990. They haven't committed multiple errors in six straight since June 21-26, 1949.

 Among batting average qualifiers, Joey Votto (.365 at home, .065 on road, .300 difference) and Bryan Reynolds (.291 at home, .096 on road, .195 difference) have the two biggest disparities in the majors between their home and road batting averages (with home better).

 Steven Brault and Max Fried are the only two pitchers this season who have started at least six games and not allowed a home run.

 The Reds have scored 60.3 percent of their runs this season via home runs, highest in MLB. The MLB record for a full season is 53.2 percent by last year's Blue Jays.

 Joey Votto's walkoff single against the Cardinals was the 12th walkoff hit of his career, tied for second most among active players behind only Albert Pujols (20).

 Luis Castillo is the third pitcher in the modern era to strike out 50+ batters over his first seven starts of a season but not get a win over that span, along with Pittsburgh's Jose DeLeon in 1985 and San Francisco's Jeff Samardzija in 2017.

The Cincinnati Reds say they have reached a point where it's time to clamp down, and they will get a double shot at showing that Friday when they play two games against the Pirates in Pittsburgh.
At least that's the promise of the Reds' longest-tenured player, first baseman Joey Votto, who expects Cincinnati to make a real run at the postseason over the final weeks of the regular season.

Reds look to start playoff push with DH in Pittsburgh

PITTSBURGH (AP)  The Pittsburgh Pirates knew they weren't going to get many chances against Cincinnati's Trevor Bauer. Thanks in large part to an influx of speed they've received over the last week, they didn't let their limited opportunities go to waste.
Rookie third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes scored from first on newly acquired outfielder Anthony Alford's fourth-inning triple and Alford sprinted home on a wild pitch from Bauer that wasn't really that wild as Pittsburgh earned a doubleheader split with a 4-3 victory in the nightcap on Friday.
