Chicago Cubs vs Cincinnati Reds - Full Game Highlights🔥 September 19, 2026 MLB Season

He was not a happy camper. The 0-1. Swag and a miss. I asked him pre-game, I said, are you able to turn the page? Swag and a miss, and Lodolo able to get him with a curveball. So PCA down on strikes. He's a bit of a unicorn in that regard. In the air, out towards right, and Brito makes the catch. The 1-0. Swag and a high fly ball, out towards left center field. And Bledet is called off by Dane Meyer. Chopped to short, and Swanson waits on the hop, unloads so smooth. The 1-1. Line drive, caught. Niko. And De La Cruz scrambles back to first. He hit that hard. 3-2. Swag and a high fly ball, left field, playable though for Taylor. He's got it. Went in a bad direction, that one. Rifled out into center field, it's going to bounce Myers, and squirts out of his glove. Niko to second, and that's going to be a double regardless. Plate, out to short. De La Cruz to second, and that's all they get. Fly ball out towards center field. Myers back near the wall, makes the catch. Tagging from third is Niko Horner. It's a sacrifice fly for Matt Sean. It's 1-0 Cubs. On the ground to short, De La Cruz to second. And the Cubs. Line drive, left field, and Taylor sliding, makes the catch. Hit hard, and Bush able to grab it, get it to Boyd, and 1-2-3, go the Cincinnati Reds. 3-2. On the ground, up the middle, backhanded by McClain, and throws to first, in time. That's to third, Hayes to second for one, on to first, two. Taylor bounces in to the around the horn. The 1-2. Swing and a miss. First strikeout for Matthew Boyd. Drilled left field, Taylor is there. 3-2. Swing and a miss. And Boyd gets the punch out. Boyd with a pair of strikeouts, looking sharp thus far in the Cubs. For the most part, it's been fastball changeup here this evening. The 2-1. Fly ball, left field, hanging up, and Taylor makes the catch. Up the middle, one, hop, flagged down by Nikko. Steady throws, got him, nice play. Steals a hit from Stewart, that one at 1-0-1. 2-2. Up the middle, it hits Boyd, he scrambles to get it, picks it up, and Bush holds onto the base. And a little fist pump for Matthew Boyd as that one clipped him. PCA's third look at him. On the ground, right side, McClain spins, throws, and they get PCA. Taps softly up along first, and they get Brickman. Drive base, hit left field. Suzuki the RBI single, and it's 2-0. He doesn't have a lot of great options in his bullpen these days either. Taylor Cruz gobbles it up, goes to second. And the Cubs are done, and they're half of the fifth. Columbus and Louisville, the triple-A clubs of the Guardians and the Reds. Swing and a miss, got him on a changeup. The 1-1. Drilled towards right center, Shaw will collect. And now the throw is cut off, thrown away, kicks away, and Suarez will race home. A little bit like he was going to settle for second base, once he's kind of easing towards second, and then kicks it in. It's off the mark. Base hit, E-6, no RBI. Boyd did the right thing. He was over there backing up. Center field, that's a base hit. They'll send a runner. PCA, throw to the plate, is offline and not in time. Lede is in to score. The 0-2. On the ground, right side, diving, Horner gets up and throws him out. What a play by Nikko. Steals a hit from Myers, and that'll end the Reds half of the inning. Michael Bush unloads right field, way back and out of here. Bush he'll touch them all, and the Cubs have retaken the lead on number 20 from Michael Bush. Boy, that might be worth two. He obliterated that baseball. Swing and a ball lifted to center from Carson Kelly. Myers barely had to move. Yanking it into the seats. Fly ball center field. Myers is there. He's got it. The 0-2. In there. Got him. Do whatever you can to neutralize those two guys. Swing and a miss. Struck him out, and that was the slider. Here comes on the ground Swanson. Backhand steadies. Throws. Got him. Nice work by Palencia. 1-2-3. Odd swing from Saia. 3-2. And that's ball four. Left-handed and occasionally right-handed. That went all the way to the backstop. And half down to second. That one up the middle, and it gets through. And a base hit. Happ racing towards third. They're going to send him. Here's the throw. Cut by Stuart. Happ is in. Nico delivers an insurance run, and it's 4-2. The 2-2. And Kelly hits it to third. Hayes gobbles it up and throws him out. Here's a 1-2. Line drive. Caught at third. Bregman. Little tapper back to the mound. Zavalli puts it to first. And there's two away. The 0-2. All the way to the backstop. And the runners advance on the wild pitch. Second and third. Two outs. 3-2. Got him swinging. Huge out for Zephyr John. That is drilled. Left field. That's back on its way and out of here. Dansby Swanson officially. Welcome back. Dansby with the blast. Number 19. And the Cubs add on. It is now 5-2. I don't need no stinkin' rehab. Pound pitch. On the ground to the right side. Brito. Swing and a miss. And McCambly gets Bregman. I thought he did. Me too. Swing and a miss. And Suarez is gone. Fly ball out towards left field. And Hatt makes the catch. Braulis in. 3-1. Popped up. Kelly tosses the mass. And he puts the squeeze on it. Ball game. Cubs win. Braulis finishes it off.
