Game 49 - Padres 7, Reds 3 (Why did David Bell not use an opener for Nick Martinez?)

Nick Kirby and Trace Fowler recap the Cincinnati Reds loss to the San Diego Padres on Wednesday night. They question why the Reds did not elect to use an opener for Nick Martinez and why Santiago Espinal is on the bench with so many poor defenders in the field. They also talk about a big night from Jeimer Candelario and his future, an impressive job from Carson Spiers and more. Plus a recap of all the Reds minor league action from Wednesday and a preview of the season finale against the Padres on Thursday.
