In this story:

The Cincinnati Reds lost to the Seattle Mariners 5-1 on Wednesday. They were swept in Seattle and are 9-9 on the season.

Here's the good, bad and ugly from Wednesday's game:

The Good

Elly De La Cruz hit a home run to become the first player in the league to hit five home runs and have five stolen bases.

The Bad

Lucas Sims struggled, giving up three runs on two hits and four walks.

The Ugly

This team had only one walk and one hit. Aside from the De La Cruz home run, they would have been no-hit in this game. That is horrible. They have to be better at the plate. They return home for a weekend series against the Angels starting on Friday.
