Andrew Abbott pitched seven innings of shutout ball a day after being named an All-Star, Elly De La Cruz hit a pair of RBI doubles and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Marlins 7-2, snapping Miami’s franchise-record 11-game road winning streak.

The Miami Marlins face the Cincinnati Reds in the third game of a 4-game set at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati Wednesday.

Abbott served as a stopper and everything else the Reds needed in order to halt their four-game losing skid. Abbott, who was confirmed as an MLB All-Star Game participant on Tuesday, July 8, threw seven and 2/3 innings of six-hit, one-run baseball against the Marlins Wednesday, July 9, and the Reds won, 7-2, at Great American Ball Park.

With a convincing victory Wednesday night, the Cincinnati Reds ended the Miami Marlins' franchise-record road winning streak -- and ensured Cincinnati still has a chance at maintaining its own positive streak as they head toward the All-Star break.

The Reds' Jose Trevino was catching for the Texas Rangers in 2021 when then-teammate Brock Holt threw a 31.1 mile-per-hour eephus pitch.

The Cincinnati Reds have opened their final homestand before the All-Star break with another rain delay. The start time for Monday night's opener of a four-game series against the Miami Marlins has been pushed back by more than an hour by adverse weather in the area. The Reds say they expect first pitch to be 8:15 p.m.

At least they got another All-Star selection out of the evening, when MLB announced that left-hander Andrew Abbott joins teammate Elly De La Cruz on the National League squad next week as a replacement for Dodgers pitcher Yosh Yamamoto.

They bounced back again Wedneday night, snapping a four-game losing streak in a 7-2 win over the Miami Marlins. More importantly, the Reds are back over .500 at 47-46. All-Star left-hander and Reds ace Andrew Abbott pitched a gem, and the Reds lineup picked themselves up after a dreadful previous four games.
