Overview

• Five different Toronto hitters went deep, with back-to-back shots in the fourth (Daulton Varsho, Alejandro Kirk) and fifth (Addison Barger, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.), as the club matched its season high with five homers and piled up 18 hits.
• Addison Barger tied the game with a two-run drive in the fifth and later added a sacrifice fly and an RBI single.
• George Springer went 2-for-4 with a home run and three runs scored, extending his surge to 19-for-44 with six homers over his past 11 games.
• Shane Bieber, in his third start since Tommy John surgery, gave up five in the second inning but then settled to retire 10 straight and secured the win to move to 2-1.
• Reds starter Zack Littell allowed four homers in 4 1/3 innings and now leads MLB with 34 surrendered this season, as Cincinnati’s skid continued and left the club five games behind the Mets for the final NL wild card with a series against New York up next.
