That’s a sweep! A four-gamer, to boot! And 15(!) straight wins at Wrigley Field!
Shota Imanaga was dominant today, inducing whiff after whiff, and ultimately striking out 10. Just stay healthy, man.
The Reds, perhaps feeling burned by losing on walk-offs for three straight days, decided to become exceedingly generous with the Cubs. The big 7-run 4th inning featured lots of walks (including one with the bases loaded), a booted ball, and an incredible gaffe by the catcher.
On that last one: Ke’Bryan Hayes grabbed a grounder with the bases loaded and nobody out, stepped on third and threw home for what should’ve been an easy tag out. Except catcher Tyler Stephenson just touched home plate like that was it. Nope. Run scored. No out. Inning continued, and there was a whole lot more pain.

— Reds Daily (@RedsDaily4) May 7, 2026One bit of outrage there at the end that Gavin Hollowell couldn’t throw strikes in a blowout, ultimately leading to Daniel Palencia having to enter the game with two outs in the 9th. There is NOTHING that makes me angrier than late-game walks in a blowout, and Hollowell was giving them out like candy. He came up before today’s game, and after that, he might be going right back down.
The Ankin Law: “Making it Personal” Player of the Game is Michael Conforto, who had a huge day at the plate and a nice day in the field. Not to take it away from Shota Imanaga, of course.
