Reds pitcher Anthony DeSclafani took the loss on Sunday, giving up six earned runs on six hits and three walks in just three innings while striking out two in his team's 9-8 defeat against the Giants.

DeSclafani (2-4) was hammered for four runs in the second inning before surrendering a two-run home run in the third. He was then lifted for a pinch-hitter in the bottom half of the third, ensuring he wouldn't get the chance to pick up what would have been his first win since April 20.

DeSclafani jumped out to a hot start after three outings but now owns a 3.80 ERA and 34:21 K:BB ratio in 45 innings. He's scheduled to face the Indians in Cleveland Saturday.
