Then the next three Reds in a row all did, dampening an otherwise encouraging outing for the rookie. That’s not to say Sproat was flawless before those hits; he walked four batters over the first five innings, allowing one run on a sacrifice fly. But that was the only damage against Sproat until Noelvi Marte dumped a clean single into right field to break up his early no-hit bid with one out in the sixth. The next batter, Elly De La Cruz, ripped an RBI double to the gap, and Austin Hays followed with a hard-hit run-scoring single. Sproat did manage to strike out the next two batters to end his afternoon, finishing with seven punchouts in six innings. “He actually had some pretty good stuff,” Reds manager Terry Francona said. “I thought it was really good,” added Sproat. “I didn’t have my best stuff out there but went out and competed for the team.”
