Game Summary
Cincinnati defeated Chicago 9-8. The Reds won by manufacturing big early offense — a three-run first and a four-run fourth — and getting timely production from Sal Stewart, Tyler Stephenson and Eugenio Suárez. Stewart went 2-for-3 with a homer and scored four times, Stephenson’s three-run homer drove the four-run fourth, and Suárez drove in four runs overall. Cincinnati’s bullpen preserved the edge as Trevor Richards worked 2.2 scoreless innings and Tejay Antone struck out three in a clean inning and was credited with the win; Julian Garcia closed despite allowing a run for the save. Chicago rallied with late hits from Edgar Quero but fell a run short.
