Starting pitcher Brady Singer was hit in his throwing arm by a line drive on Sunday in Cincinnati's win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. On Monday, Reds manager Terry Francona provided a positive update on the right-hander.

Cincinnati Reds All-Star shortstop Elly De La Cruz leads the Reds in home runs, runs batted in and stolen bases.

A year after he stepped away from baseball to focus on his health, Terry Francona will be back in the dugout to manage the Cincinnati Reds, who introduced him at a news conference Monday.

Andrew Abbott tossed a complete game shutout on Tuesday night as the Reds took down the Cleveland Guardians 1-0.

The Reds extended their winning streak over the Guardians this season to five straight games with the Tuesday, June 10 1-0 victory.

The Guardians haven't yet scored more than four runs in the month of June as they try to rebound against Terry Francona's Reds.

"We always kind of encourage that with our guys, that if they want to (seek a second opinion), go," manager Terry Francona said.
