CINCINNATI—The Cincinnati bullpen picked up after starting pitcher Frankie Montas left the game with an injury in the first inning, and the Reds shut out the Los Angeles Angels 3–0 on Sunday, April 21, to cap a sweep of a three-game series.
Montas was hit by a line drive off the bat of Taylor Ward and left the game with a bruised right forearm after just 16 pitches. Brent Suter allowed four hits in 3 1/3 innings. Emilio Pagan (2–1) earned the win after allowing one hit in two innings.
