Toronto Blue Jays veteran starter Max Scherzer turned back the clock with seven strikeouts in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds for his 225th career victory, but it wasn't enough to secure one of his contract bonuses.
PHILADELPHIA — Phillies owner John Middleton remembers it well all these years later. Sitting in the second deck on the third-base side of Connie Mack Stadium back on Sept. 21, 1964, a 9-year-old Middleton watched in horror as Cincinnati’s Chico Ruiz broke for the plate. A “huge Phillies fan” at the time who attended games […]
On the final day of the Major League Baseball regular season in 2026 the Cincinnati Reds got to play the heel for a future Hall of Famer, one who may well have thrown his last big league pitch against them. They even made him look like his old self even though that had rarely been […]

Have we seen the last of Mad Max on the mound? Max Scherzer struck out seven over seven-plus innings for his 225th career win and help the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Cincinnati Reds 5-1 in Sunday’s season finale. A two-time World Series champion and three-time Cy Young Award winner, Scherzer (4-9) boosted his career strikeout total to 3,557. That’s the ninth-highest mark in big league history — three behind former teammate Justin Verlander, who made the final start of his decorated career Satu...
The Cincinnati Reds season came to an end on Sunday evening in Toronto. Max Scherzer, is possibly the last start of his Hall of Fame career, allowed one run in seven plus innings and the early lead built up by the Blue Jays held up in a 5-1 win for the home team. Final R H E Cincinnati Reds (75-87) 1 7 0 Toronto Blue Jays (79-83) 5 5 0 W: Scherzer (4-9) L: Williamson (5-5) Statcast | Box Score | Game Thread Toronto would get a lead early after Brandon Williamson began the bottom of the 2nd inn...
Reds 1 Blue Jays 5 If I were Max Scherzer, that’s how I’d want to end my career. He threw seven innings, allowed six hits, one earned run, one walk, and seven strikeouts (which would finish him with 3,557 strikeouts, three fewer than Justin Verlander). Max threw 114 pitches. That’s just amazing, especially on short […]
Max Scherzer was in vintage form in what could be his final major league start. The future Hall of Famer allowed one run while striking out seven Cincinnati Reds batters and walking one as he pitched into the eighth inning on Sunday afternoon. Scherzer, 42, has said he will make a decision about his future later in the off-season. If this is the end, he would step away from the game as one of the most dominant pitchers in the history of baseball. Scherzer has two World Series championships, th...
Eugenio Suárez is all but a lock to leave Cincinnati, but what other players should the Reds look to replace this coming offseason?
Today marks the final game of the 2026 season for the Cincinnati Reds who, with 86 losses already on their ledger, have clinched a last place finish in the National League Central division and have once again missed the playoffs. Surprisingly, it’ll be the final game of the season for the Toronto Blue Jays, too. […]
Today is the day – the last day of the regular season. And for both the Cincinnati Reds and the Toronto Blue Jays it’s the final day of their season as neither squad is heading to the playoffs. The two teams will square off this afternoon and try to end their season on a high note with the winner on Sunday picking up a series win to end 2026. First pitch is scheduled for 3:07pm ET. Starting Lineups Cincinnati Reds Toronto Blue Jays Carlos Jorge – CF George Springer – DH Elly De La Cruz – DH Br...
There were no fireworks, no on-field celebrations. There were not cases of Miller High Life, warmed and shaken, waiting for them in the locker room with snorkels and goggles. Saturday afternoon’s loss to the Toronto Blue Jays was the 86th such result for the Cincinnati Reds during this miserable 2026 season, and this was no […]
I’m going to put the thread up early, we are going to a feed the hungry thing and I’m not sure we’ll be back before the first pitch, because we’ll likely be hungry for lunch after. But I’ll look for a place that will have the game on. I am liking the SB Nation app […]
Reds 5 Jays 1 I knew this was going to be late, but not this late. Sorry, life has a way of getting in the way of what you have to do. At least they don’t have many more losses ahead now. It was another one of those days where the offense didn’t bother to […]
Hector Rodriguez had a two-run triple in the fifth inning as the Cincinnati Reds topped the Toronto Blue Jays 5-1 on Saturday. JJ Bleday had a solo home run in the second inning for an early Cincinnati (75-86) lead. Sal Stewart’s fielder’s choice scored a run in the third and Eugenio Suarez smashed an RBI double in the next at-bat. Rhett Lowder (7-12) pitched six scoreless innings, allowing three hits and two walks, striking out two. Connor Phillips, Graham Ashcraft and Tejay Antone came out o...

By Mark Polishuk | at September 26, 2026 1:38pm CDT The Cubs have claimed right-hander Julian Aguiar off waivers, according to the Reds. There hadn’t been any indication that Aguiar had been designated for assignment, but he’ll now look to continue his career with one of Cincinnati’s division rivals. A corresponding move will need to be made since Chicago has a full 40-man roster. Selected in the 12th round of the 2021 draft, Aguiar made his big league debut with the Reds in 2024 and posted a ...
Game 161. Are there any other sports that play 162 games in a season? Can you imagine if MLB played just 17 games a season? It would be a whole different spot. So, I had a night last night. Men’s Night Out, a charity thing for my wife’s church. I’m the least religious person you’ll […]
Elly De La Cruz reached his 30-30 milestone during Friday night’s loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, meaning the Cincinnati Reds now have a pair of games left in their 2026 season with roughly nothing left to play for. That’s true for most of the roster, in all honesty. For Rhett Lowder, though, there’s at […]
Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Max Scherzer says he hasn't yet decided whether his Saturday start against the visiting Cincinnati Reds will be the final appearance of his MLB career.
Max Scherzer’s near future is sorted out; what’s further down the line remains up in the air. The Toronto Blue Jays will send Max Scherzer to the mound for the season finale against the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday, but he’s yet to decide whether or not it’ll be his career finale, he told reporters Saturday. Scherzer, 42, told reporters he wanted one last shot to toe the mound with his family in attendance for the game against the Reds Sunday. It’s been a storied career for the future Hall of Fam...
Max Scherzer will start the Blue Jays’ season finale on Sunday, and told reporters (including Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi) that he’ll wait until the offseason before deciding on his longer-term future. Perhaps reflecting Scherzer’s uncertainty, the future Hall-of-Famer noted that his family will be in attendance tomorrow, just in case the game with the Reds ends […]
When the 2026 Major League Baseball season began there had only been eight seasons in history where a shortstop had hit 30 home runs and stolen 30 bases in the same season. It had never happened in baseball until 1996 when Barry Larkin accomplished the feat for the Cincinnati Reds. Two players have gotten there twice and both were very recently. Bobby Witt Jr. got there in 2023 and 2024, while Francisco Lindor did so in 2023 and 2025. This season two more shortstops joined the group as CJ Abra...
