(BALTIMORE) – The Cincinnati Reds’ series-clinching rout of the Orioles in Baltimore on Sunday was one for the record books.

They scored in six of the first eight innings, batted around twice, drew 11 walks and faced two Orioles position players on the mound in the 24-2 victory.

According to our media partners at the Cincinnati Enquirer, The Reds’ eighth win in their last 12 games evened their season record at 11-11 and included the following franchise milestones:

  • Backup catcher Austin Wynns, who only made the club out of spring training because starter Tyler Stephenson opened on the injured list, became the fifth Red since 1900 to record six hits in a game, first since Phil Ervin in 2019.
  • The Reds’ 15 hits with men in scoring position were the most in a game since at least 1975 (officials were still scouring the records for before that).
  • The 24 runs matched the second-most since 1900 — done three times. They scored 26 in a game in 1911.
  • The 11 walks matched the most since 2020 against the White Sox.
  • The 36 times reaching base is tied for third most in franchise history
