Reds' Buck Farmer: Tallies first career save
Farmer gave up one walk but did not surrender a hit in a scoreless ninth inning of work to earn the save in a 3-2 win over the Orioles on SUnday
Farmer was called upon to protect a precarious one-run lead after Brandon Drury hit a go-ahead pinch-hit home run. He shut the door on the Orioles to pick up his first career save. The 31-year-old veteran has pitched only 21 innings so far in 2022 and has a 5.49 ERA.

Cessa (back) is close to returning from the IL and won't need a rehab stint, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.
Cessa has struggled this season, posting a 6.68 ERA and 1.65 WHIP over 31 innings, after being a nice addition last season down the stretch run. However, with the Reds' bullpen decimated, he still might pick up a few holds as the campaign winds down.

Reds' Joey Votto: Homers in second straight
Votto went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks in an 8-2 victory over the Orioles on Saturday.
Votto went deep for the second game in a row to raise his home-run total to 10 on the year. The veteran first baseman has now posted double-digit home runs in every season since 2015. Votto got off to a miserable start in 2022, and his season-long numbers represent a major drop-off from his impressive 36 home-run season in 2021, when he slashed .266/.375/.563.

Reds' Jonathan India: Flashes power in three-hit game
India went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and a double in an 8-2 win over the Orioles on Saturday.
India turned on a letter-high inside fastball from Dean Kremer to pick up his seventh home run of the season and help power the Reds to a victory over the surging Orioles. After struggling through the month of June with a .167 average, India is slashing a quality .259/.337/.459 to go along with four home runs in July. The 25-year-old second baseman showed promise last season by posting a 3.1 Fangraphs WAR in his rookie campaign, so it is possible that he heats up down the stretch.
