Hunter Greene struggled in his first postseason start, allowing five runs in three innings as the Dodgers beat the Reds 10-5 in Game 1.

Hunter Greene made his first postseason start for the Cincinnati Reds in his hometown of Los Angeles on Tuesday, facing the Dodgers in Game 1 of the NL Wild Card Series. The 26-year-old ace gave up a leadoff home run to Shohei Ohtani and lasted just three innings, allowing five runs on five hits, including three home runs. He walked two and struck out four, with Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson noting struggles with slider command. Consecutive walks to Freddie Freeman and Max Muncy led to back-to-back homers by Teoscar Hernández and Tommy Edman, contributing to a 10-5 Dodgers win. Greene expressed frustration but remained confident in his ability to return to the postseason stage.
