Game Summary
Cincinnati Reds defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 5-4. The Reds took control when Sal Stewart belted a three-run homer in the sixth, and they added insurance with two eighth-inning runs — a throwing error on Blaze Jordan allowed Jose Trevino to score and Dane Myers followed with an RBI single. Matt McLain finished 3-for-3 with a double and two runs, while Stewart drove in three. St. Louis mounted a late charge when Jordan Walker’s two-run homer in the ninth made it 5-4, but Cincinnati held on. Matthew Liberatore struck out nine over six innings but took the loss; Sam Moll earned the win and Emilio Pagán recorded the save.
