Postgame Takeaways: Cincinnati Reds Fall to Detroit Tigers 5-3

The Cincinnati Reds fell to the Detroit Tigers 5-3 on Saturday afternoon at Great American Ball Park.

The Reds fall to 42-47 on the season while the Tigers improve to 41-48.

Hunter Greene Tosses a Gem

Greene gave the Reds exactly what they needed on Saturday afternoon. He threw seven scoreless innings, only allowing three hits. He walked two and struck out seven. Greene’s ERA now sits at 3.45 on the season.

Lack of Offense

The Reds bats went quiet once again. They scored three runs on just six hits and not a single Reds player had more than one hit.

The Reds took a 2-0 lead when Tyler Stephenson hit a two-RBI double in the fifth inning. With the Reds trailing 5-2 in the ninth, Spencer Steer hit his third home run in as many days, his 13th of the season.

Bullpen Struggles

After Greene tossed seven scoreless innings, Fernando Cruz entered in the eighth with the Reds leading 2-0. He pitched 1/3 of an inning, giving up three runs on two hits. He also walked a batter. With the Reds trailing 3-2, Sam Moll entered the game and also struggled. Moll gave up a hit, walked a batter, and surrendered two runs.

Hayley Williams says ‘c u soon’ to Detroit, hinting at upcoming tour

The Paramore frontwoman appears to be mapping out tour dates behind her 2025 solo album, ‘Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.’

Hayley Williams will soon have a date with Detroit.

The Paramore frontwoman’s website was updated Saturday with a list of cities underneath the header, “cu_soon.jpg.”

Detroit was one of 28 cities listed on the itinerary, along with Atlanta, Boston, Cincinnati, Raleigh and Los Angeles, and a handful of South American cities.

Over the course of the last week, Williams, 37, has been slowly rolling out dates on her latest solo tour, which comes on the heels of her 2025 solo album “Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.” An earlier round of touring behind the project did not include a Detroit date.

The singer’s last local visit came when Paramore played Little Caesars Arena in June 2023.

Detroit getting pro women’s hockey team? What we know about the rumors

Is a professional women’s hockey team coming to Detroit?

The answer is not fully clear yet, but the buzz for Hockeytown to get a Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) team very soon is real.

Denise Ilitch, who’s family owns the Detroit Red Wings, the Tigers and Little Caesars Arena (her brother Christopher Ilitch runs the day-to-day operations), predicted the PWHL was coming to Detroit earlier this year.

“I believe we’ll be getting a team in Detroit soon, which really excites me,” Ilitch said on her “Denise Ilitch Show” podcast on March 31.

Ilitch also serves on the Board of Regents at the University of Michigan and has been a strong advocate for a U-M women’s hockey team in recent years.

Media reports from the New York Times and The Hockey News also indicate that Detroit may be next in line for an expansion team, after the league added two teams last month in Seattle and Vancouver. The league is looking to 2-4 teams by 2026-27.

The PWHL has made tour stops to Detroit four times in the last three years and some of the best women’s hockey players in the nation are from Michigan, including Megan Keller, who was the hero for Team USA women’s hockey at the 2026 Winter Olympics.

During the 2023-24 season, 13,736 hockey fans set an attendance record at the time for a professional women’s hockey game in the United States.

The PWHL, which celebrated its first season in 2023-24, has gained extra interest since the 2026 Winter Olympics.

If Detroit got a PWHL team, some fans hope that could push the University of Michigan and Michigan State University to eventually add Division I women’s hockey programs.

The league’s last appearance in Detroit on March 28, 2026, featured a 3-1 Montreal Victoire win over the New York Sirens in front of 15,938 fans at Little Caesars Arena.

The Free Press reached out to officials with the city of Detroit, but they did not immediately provide comment.
