Will never understand why leagues like MLS and the WNBA, which are in periods of great growth potential, are the ones that look to restrict media access and coverage.
For the Royals, meanwhile, that's about as tough a loss as you can have. Noah Cameron allows 1 hit through 7 innings. The Reds have 4 hits all night. Man.
Managers and players often will shy away from applying too much importance to a game in early June, but after the past 24 hours the Reds have endured, pretty clear that tonight's win meant a little more.

Tito: "I thought we pitched pretty good. Andrew had a real tough fourth inning. He just couldn't finish hitters that inning. Our bullpen really strung it together. Did a really good job."

Spencer Steer: "Losing Elly the other day, he's obviously a massive part of our team. It's on us to fill that void and find ways to win ball games without him. Just an unreal job by everyone. Talk about willing a victory."

With the current state of the bullpen and team at the moment, the Reds needed their aces -- Abbott and Burns -- to be really good tonight and tomorrow. If not, sets up a really rough stretch.
Edwin Arroyo’s family is in attendance tonight.
The whole crew - parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts and uncles - flew in today and will be in the stands the next two games.

Also, special shoutout to my wife's uncle, Robert Lemmink, a longtime usher at Great American Ball Park and an all-around great guy. He's in a serious battle with ALS right now, so thinking about him and the whole family. #LouGehrigDay
Always enjoy when I work games for MLB. com and I get a stat/note from @SlangsOnSports because it's always exactly what I need to tell the full story. It also makes me smile because I know she's out there doing what she loves, and that's awesome. #LouGehrigDay
