Cincinnati's record fell to 18-17 as the Reds lost four of seven games on their now-concluded homestand. The Reds split their four-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals and lost two out of three to the Nationals. Asked about where the team stood following the loss, Francona said, "I never even think about yesterday."

Amed Rosario homered and drove in four runs to propel the Washington Nationals to an 11-6 victory over the Cincinnati Reds.
