sweep of Twins
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- TJ Friedl hit a go-ahead, three-run double in the ninth
inning, Rece Hinds added a two-run double in the 10th, and the Cincinnati Reds
rallied past the Minnesota Twins 7-4 on Sunday for a three-game sweep.
Cincinnati scored six runs over the final two innings to win its third
extra-inning game this season, matching its total from 2025. The NL
Central-leading Reds are 11-0 in games decided by three or fewer runs,
including 6-0 in one-run games.
Cincinnati trailed 3-1 entering the ninth when Spencer Steer and Tyler
Stephenson led off with singles against Andrew Morris. Dane Myers walked to
load the bases for Friedl, who hit a liner to right-center that made it 4-3.
Austin Martin tied it in the bottom half with an RBI double against Emilio
Pagn (2-0), who blew a save for the second time this season.
In the 10th, Eugenio Surez hit a grounder against Garrett Acton (1-1) that
deflected off the glove of third baseman Tristan Gray for an error, and left
fielder Martin couldn't field the slowly rolling ball for another error that
allowed automatic runner Elly De La Cruz to score.
Hinds followed with a two-out double that gave the Reds a three-run cushion.
Graham Ashcraft worked the bottom half for his first save.
Minnesota's Victor Caratini had a sacrifice fly in the first and an RBI single
in the third.
Bailey Ober allowed one unearned run in 6 1/3 innings for the Twins.
Minnesota's starters gave up three earned runs over 18 1/3 innings in the
series, but the Twins' batters went 6 for 35 with runners in scoring position.
