CINCINNATI (AP) --- Matt McLain snapped a seventh-inning tie with a leadoff
homer and the Cincinnati Reds held on to beat the Milwaukee Brewers 5-3 on
Saturday night.
Elly De La Cruz and Tyler Stephenson also went deep for the last-place Reds in
a game delayed more than two hours by rain. Emilio Pagn pitched out of a
bases-loaded jam in the ninth for his 21st save in 24 chances.
William Contreras homered early for the major league-leading Brewers (88-55),
who hold a seven-game lead in the NL Central over the Chicago Cubs.
