Friedl makes game-saving grab and Reds rally to snap Brewers' 8-game streak with 4-2 win
CINCINNATI (AP) — TJ Friedl made a leaping catch in center field for the final out to rob pinch-hitter Jake Bauers of a tying home run, and the Cincinnati Reds rallied for a 4-2 victory that snapped the Milwaukee Brewers' eight-game winning streak Tuesday night. Tyler Stephenson homered for Cincinnati, and pinch-hitter Gavin Lux drove in the go-ahead run with a sacrifice fly in the seventh inning. Will Benson also went deep as the Reds stopped a three-game skid. Sal Frelick homered and Christian Yelich had two hits to extend his hitting streak to 10 games for Milwaukee.

Peralta allowed only one hit and struck six of the first 11 batters he faced before Elly De La Cruz doubled off the left-field wall. Stephenson followed with a two-run homer to right on a 96.6 mph fastball from Peralta. Grant Ashcraft (4-4) got the win and Emilio Pagan earned his 15th save. Yelich lined an RBI single in the first to get Milwaukee on the board. Frelick's solo shot off Reds starter Hunter Greene in the fourth made it 2-0. It was Frelick's fifth homer of the season and it marked the first time he had gone deep in 13 games. Key moment Benson gave the Reds some insurance with a homer to left-center in the eighth. It was the first time the outfielder had gone deep since May 18 against Cleveland, which was part of a four-game run in which he had five homers. Key stat Four of Stephenson's five home runs have come in the past eight games. Up next The teams play the series finale Wednesday afternoon.

Abbott pitches 7 crisp innings as the Reds hold off the Cubs for a 6-2 win
Andrew Abbott pitched seven shutout innings in his third consecutive win, helping the Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago Cubs 6-2 on Friday. TJ Friedl, Tyler Stephenson and Jake Fraley homered for Cincinnati, which improved to 3-1 on a six-game trip. Will Benson had two hits and scored twice. The Reds played without outfielder Austin Hays, one of their best hitters. Hays was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left foot contusion. Abbott (5-0) allowed one hit, struck out eight and walked one. The left-hander improved to 3-0 with a sparkling 0.55 ERA in six May starts. Emilio Pagán got two outs for his 14th save, working out of a jam in the ninth. Chicago had won four in a row and seven of eight overall. The NL Central leaders took two of three against the Reds in Cincinnati last weekend. Cubs right-hander Colin Rea (3-2) was tagged for six runs and a season-high 10 hits in 5 2/3 innings. Friedl drove Rea's third pitch of the game deep to right-center for his fourth homer of the season. Friedl also singled in the third for his seventh consecutive game with multiple hits. Stephenson connected for a two-run shot in the fourth, a 435-foot drive to center for his fourth homer. Fraley added another two-run shot in the sixth in his first game back after being sidelined by left calf tenderness. Chicago scored its two runs in the eighth. Michael Busch hit an RBI triple and scored on Matt Shaw's single to right. The Cubs had runners on first and second when Graham Ashcraft replaced Tony Santillan on the mound in the eighth. Ashcraft got Kyle Tucker to bounce into a 3-6-1 double play, ending the inning. Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong struck out swinging in his first three at-bats before reaching on a bloop double in the ninth. He flung his bat off to the side in frustration after striking out for the final out in the fourth. Left-hander Nick Lodolo (4-4, 3.39 ERA) starts on Saturday for the Reds. The Cubs were contemplating going with an opener, depending on Friday's game. ___ AP MLB:
