The weather delayed Kyle Wright‘s first AAA start to Friday, and he made it worth the wait, keeping hitters at bay throughout his performance, going 5 2/3 innings without allowing a hit, though he did have some control issues that allowed 2 runs to cross the plate with 4 walks and a hit batter.

Lucas Sims makes his first start as a member of the Reds organization, taking the hill for Louisville against Columbus and Mitch Talbot.
