CINCINNATI, Oh. (WMDJ) — The Cincinnati Reds powered their way past the Philadelphia Phillies 11-5 Wednesday night, belting five home runs to even the three-game series at one game apiece.

The Phillies grabbed a 2-0 lead in the second inning, but the Reds answered in the third when Sal Stewart launched a two-run home run to tie the game.

Cincinnati took control with a five-run fourth inning. Noelvi Marte opened the inning with a solo homer before Edwin Arroyo tripled and scored on a two-run blast by Elly De La Cruz. Stewart then connected for his second home run of the night, followed by a solo shot from JJ Bleday to stretch the lead to 7-2.

The Reds added four more runs in the sixth inning. Marte delivered the biggest hit of the inning with a bases-clearing double, finishing the night 2-for-5 with four RBIs.

Stewart went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBIs. His second homer of the game was his 19th of the season, setting a Reds franchise record for the most home runs by a rookie before the All-Star break, breaking the previous mark held by Frank Robinson.

De La Cruz finished 2-for-3 with a home run, two RBIs, two walks and three runs scored, while Chase Burns earned the win after allowing three runs on three hits over five innings. Burns walked six and struck out two.

Philadelphia hit three home runs of its own, including Kyle Schwarber’s 32nd of the season in the ninth inning, but the Reds’ offense proved too much.

The series concludes Thursday night at Great American Ball Park. First pitch is scheduled for 7:10 p.m., with pregame coverage beginning at 6:40 p.m. on WMDJ FM 100.1.
