SAN FRANCISCO — That sound coming from the Bay Area late Tuesday night wasn’t an earthquake.
But it sounded seismic for the Cincinnati Reds when they hit bottom on a crucial west coast road trip, their embattled, depleted lineup finally coming up nearly empty altogether when San Francisco Giants right-hander Alex Cobb no-hit the Reds for 8 2/3 innings in a 6-1 Giants victory at Oracle Park.
Spencer Steer broke up the no-no on Cobb's 125th pitch of the night, driving a double to the right-center gap that drove home Nick Senzel, who had walked with one out.
