CINCINNATI (AP) — The Reds’ bullpen picked up after starting pitcher Frankie Montas left the game in the first inning and Cincinnati shut out the Los Angeles Angels 3-0 on Sunday to sweep the series. Montas was hit by a line drive by Taylor Ward and left the game with a bruised right forearm after 16 pitches. Brent Suter allowed four hits in 3 1/3 innings. Emilio Pagan (2-1) earned the win after allowing one hit in two innings. “It’s not the first time I’ve come into game in the first inning. It probably won’t be my last. It’s part of my job,” Suter said. Montas tracked the ball down and threw Ward out at first before leaving with the trainer. “I was going to make the play regardless. I told myself get him out,” Montas said. “I couldn’t feel my hand, nothing. It swelled up right away. The ball was clocked at 101 mph. “I was trying to get out of the way. It didn’t give me time,” he said. |
