Overview

  • Austin Hays’s bases-loaded single in the 10th inning capped a 3-2 Reds victory and ended Milwaukee’s franchise-record 14-game run.
  • William Contreras clubbed a two-run homer with one out in the ninth to give the Brewers a brief lead before Cincinnati responded.
  • Andrew Abbott stifled the Brewers over seven shutout innings, while José Quintana worked into the seventh and allowed one run in 6⅓ frames.
  • Milwaukee was forced to deploy Tobias Myers and Grant Anderson in extra innings after its high-leverage relievers logged 13⅓ innings earlier in the series.
  • Cincinnati preserved its season-long streak of evading a series sweep and boosted its wild-card bid as Milwaukee shifts focus to a five-game series against the Cubs.
