The Reds tied an MLB record after walking seven straight batters against the Pirates, completely losing control on the mound. Rhett Lowder issued three of those walks, while Connor Phillips added four more in the same stretch. The sequence turned the game into a free pass situation with bases constantly loading without any hits. It’s a rare pitching collapse that goes straight into the record books for all the wrong reasons. - follow ( slugger.report ) for insane baseball content - #baseball #mlb #baseballplays #cincinattireds #baseballrecord
