W, (7-4) @Nationals Park
We faced the Reds on the first series of the year. The bats came up swinging from the start and we scored 7 runs in the first three innings. Victor Robles had a great game as he went 3 for 4 with a huge 3-run home-run on the third innings. Garret Richards struggled in his second start as he gave up 4 runs in 4.1 innings pitched. Daniel McGrath had a great relief outing and he has been excellent so far. Brad Hand earned his ninth save of the year.

W, (5-0) @Nationals Park
We had our second shutout win of the year thanks to a great performance by Trevor Bauer. Bauer had complete command of his curveball and lead the team to a win thanks to seven innings of 2-hit shutout ball. McGrath and Rainey finished the game. The offense was commanded by Trea Turner went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles. Carter Kieboom also had a good multi-hit game.

Roster Moves
Keone Kela was diagnosed with a strained triceps and he will be out for 6 weeks. He went to the 15-day IL. James Borque was recalled from AAA.

W, (7-4) @Nationals Park
We managed to win by a very slim margin and sweep the Reds. Scherzer only threw 4.2 innings and allowed 5 runs. Nevertheless, the game was close as the offense came through on the first few innings. Carter Kieboom had his 4th homer of the year. Guerra, Givens, and Suero struggled in relief and the Reds tied the game on the top of the eighth. But a single by Kolten Wong in the bottom of that same inning gave us the edge and Brad Hand recorded his 10th save of the year.

League News
Michael Kopech was diagnosed with a torn labrum and will miss 4 months of action.
SP Lucas Sims was traded from the Reds to the Blue Jays.

W, (4-2) @Miller Park
We won our fifth game on a row thanks to a good performance by Strasburg. Stephen went 7.2 innings, allowed 2 runs and punched out 9 rivals. Suero finished the 8th inning and Brad Hand handled the ninth recorded yet another save. Carter Kieboom was named player of the game as he had a grand slam on the 4th inning that gave us the lead.

W, (12-10) @Miller Park
The second game at Milwaukee was a nailbiter. We scored early thanks to a homer by Juan Soto and some good rallies. Castro and Kieboom also went deep but on the bottom of the eighth Tailon and Givens struggled and gave up 4 runs. The game went to extra innings and at the top of the 12th innings, Turner and Murphy scored. James Bourque handled the bottom of the inning and earned his second save of the season.

W, (4-2) @Miller Park
A late out rally helped us take the final game of the series and win our sixth win of the week. Garret Richards had his first quality outing of the year and he went six innings allowing 2 runs. The bullpen had a good outing and kept the Brewers scoreless for the three final innings. Zimmerman had a clutch homer on the top of the ninth of Josh Hader that gave us a two-run deal. Javy Guerra handeld the ninth and earned his first save of the year.

Roster Moves
We´ve traded Mychael Givens to the Texas Rangers in exchange for minor leaguers 1B Curtis Terry and 2B Yonny Hernandez. Jhonatan German was recalled from AAA.
