The Tigers are riding high after a big win on a rain-soaked Friday night at the ballpark. After a back-and-forth start against the Reds in the first game of the weekend set, a big sixth inning gave the home die an advantage. Detroit put up four runs in the frame, adding four more over the next two innings, to pull away and win 11-5.

CINCINNATI -- Less than 24 hours after getting blown out 11-5 in Detroit, the Reds bounced back and beat the Tigers 11-1 on Saturday afternoon. The series is now even at one game apiece between the Reds and the team with the best record in Major League Baseball.

With the Cincinnati Reds facing a Detroit Tigers team that has the most wins in Major League Baseball, the Reds needed their most talented player to rise to the occasion. Shortstop Elly De La Cruz delivered with one of his most impressive games of the season.

The Reds did tack on three too-little, too-late runs in the ninth when De La Cruz doubled home Santiago Espinal to make it 11-3, then Tyler Stephenson doubled in two more runs to make it 11-5. De La Cruz was 3-for-4, raising his average to .267.

The Detroit Tigers outfielder came up big in Friday’s 11-5 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. Greene was 2 for 5 with a home run and 4 RBI’s as the Tigers cruised to their 46th win of the season.

Cincinnati Reds ace Hunter Greene was still in Los Angeles Friday night, pending one more meeting with specialists before returning to Cincinnati.

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Austin Hays spoke with reporters ahead of Friday's game against the Detroit Tigers and shares an update on his injured foot. Hays said his foot hasn't improved over the last two days and that they're going to shut him down before easing back into activity,
