Game Summary
Cincinnati Reds defeated Milwaukee Brewers 5-3. The Reds won by getting three homers and timely offense, keyed by Elly De La Cruz’s leadoff blast and Matt McLain’s go-ahead solo in the seventh that put Cincinnati up 4-3; Tyler Stephenson also homered to spark the middle innings. Cincinnati collected 12 hits and manufactured the decisive run in the seventh. Tony Santillan was credited with the win after a clean outing, and Emilio Pagán closed with a scoreless inning for the save. Aaron Ashby took the loss for Milwaukee after allowing the run that tied the game earlier; the Reds bullpen preserved the late lead to finish the 5-3 victory.
