>>Reds, Pirates Renew Bad Blood Rivalry Tonight

(Pittsburgh, PA) -- Maybe ring announcer Michael Buffer should do the introductions tonight when the Pirates host the Reds. The last time the two met on July 30th, there was a dugout-clearing brawl that led to eight ejections. There is potential for more fireworks for the three-game series this weekend at PNC Park. The two teams have squared off in a dozen games this year and the ugly numbers include nine hit batters, 15 ejections and two major bench-clearing melees. Anthony DeSclafani will start the opener for Cincinnati, which plays its next 11 on the road. The Reds put outfielder Jesse Winkler on the injured list with a cervical strain. He has been out of the lineup the past seven games. 

>>Indians Blanked By Mets In Rain-Shortened Game

(Flushing, NY) -- The Indians had just two hits in a 2-0 loss to the Mets in a game called by rain in the eighth inning in New York. Aaron Civale was outdueled by Noah Syndergaard as the Tribe was swept in the three-game set. The Indians were held without a hit until the sixth.

>>Indians Host Royals Tonight

(Cleveland, OH) -- The Indians are back home tonight to begin a three-game series with the Royals. Zach Plesac starts for Cleveland and Jakob Junis for KC. The Tribe is now a half-game out of an AL wild card spot and three-and-a-half games back in the AL Central.

>>Bengals Lose To Giants

(Cincinnati, OH) -- Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton completed 7-of-10 passes for 104 yards and a touchdown in three series in a 25-23 loss to the Giants at Paul Brown Stadium. Dalton tossed a 26-yard touchdown pass to C.J. Uzomah on his final drive with the first two ending in punts. Back up quarterback Ryan Finley completed 14-of-20 passes for 155 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions, but was sacked three times. The Bengals netted only 29 yards rushing on 16 carries. 

>>Browns At Buccaneers Tonight

(Tampa, FL) -- The Browns are in Tampa tonight to battle the Buccaneers. It's the third preseason game for Cleveland, which has wins over Washington and Indianapolis thus far. The Browns finish exhibition play Thursday hosting Detroit. The regular season starts September 8th.
