Do you love Kentucky Sports Radio? (Duh.) Do you also love the Cincinnati Reds? Then you’re in luck because on Saturday, August 19, the Reds are hosting KSR night, with specially-priced tickets for KSR fans in Sections 102 and 103.

Not only will you get to see the Reds take on the Toronto Blue Jays, you’ll get to sit with some like-minded folk. If you get there early enough, you’ll also receive a Jonathan India bobblehead! Who could ask for anything more?

First pitch of Reds vs. Blue Jays on the 19th is set for 5:40 p.m. ET at Great American Ball Park. Currently, the Blue Jays are 60-49 and third in the AL East. Don’t bother bringing a book because if the baseball gods are smiling upon us, Elly De La Cruz will keep us entertained.

OH MY, ELLY DE LA CRUZ 🤯

Reds lose second straight to the Chicago Cubs

Last night, the Reds lost to the Chicago Cubs 16-6, to fall to 1-2 in the series. The Reds led early on thanks to home runs by Spencer Steer and Joey Votto, but the Cubs took control with five runs in the sixth inning en route to their second straight rout. On Tuesday, the Cubs won 20-9. Tonight, the Reds will look for redemption in the final game of the series. First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m.

Cincinnati still sits atop the NL Central with a half-game lead over the Milwaukee Brewers. Chicago is firmly in third. The Brewers face the fourth-place Pittsburgh Pirates tonight.
