Reds Edge Orioles 3-2 to Salvage Series Finale

CINCINNATI, Oh. (WMDJ) — The Cincinnati Reds wrapped up their series against the Baltimore Orioles with a 3-2 victory Sunday afternoon at Great American Ball Park, snapping a six-game home losing streak.

 

Runs were hard to come by for both clubs until the fifth inning, when Spencer Steer broke the scoreless tie with a two-run home run to right-center field, scoring Eugenio Suárez for a 2-0 Reds lead.

 

Baltimore answered in the sixth on Coby Mayo's RBI single to cut the deficit to 2-1, but Sal Stewart provided an important insurance run in the eighth with an RBI double that scored Edwin Arroyo.

 

The Orioles threatened in the ninth, scoring on Gunnar Henderson's sacrifice fly to make it 3-2, but Emilio Pagán recorded the final out to earn his seventh save of the season.

 

Nick Lodolo turned in a strong start, allowing one run on six hits over six innings while striking out four to improve to 3-2 on the season. Brock Burke and Julian Garcia combined for two scoreless innings before Pagán closed the door despite allowing a run in the ninth.

 

Steer finished with the game's biggest hit, driving in two runs with his 14th home run of the season. Stewart added an RBI double and Arroyo scored a run, while Tyler Stephenson collected two of Cincinnati's five hits.

 

The Reds improve to 41-48 and will have Monday off before opening a three-game home series against the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday.
