Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona (illness) was back with the team on Saturday at American Family Field for their 11-7 victory over the division-rival Milwaukee Brewers after missing the previous game with what he jokingly described as "intestinal turmoil." "I don't think I've been 100% since 1988," Francona said. "I feel good enough to be here. It's not a good feeling, not being here." With the skipper back, the Reds snapped a four-game losing streak. In addition to Francona, first-base coach Collin Cowgill and a number of players were out on Friday. The good news is Cincinnati wasn't missing any regular starters on Saturday due to a stomach bug going around the clubhouse. The Reds went hitless for the first 6 2/3 innings on Friday and eventually ended a 35-inning scoreless streak by scoring two runs in the eighth inning. It was Cincy's longest scoreless streak since 1946.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerRead More News
