CINCINNATI (AP) — Elly De La Cruz hit his first two homers of the season, a massive 450-foot solo drive and a sinking liner that turned into his first career inside-the-park drive, and the Reds held off the Milwaukee Brewers for a 10-8 win.
De La Cruz had three hits and scored four times.
Will Benson also homered for the Reds, and Spencer Steer had two RBIs.
The Reds led 8-0 after four innings and 9-3 after five.
And the Brewers nearly rallied for an improbable win. Milwaukee’s Brice Turang homered and drove in four runs.
