Decisive run scores on wild pitch

-

Eric Sogard MILWAUKEE — ran home with the winning run on a wild pitch in the bottom of the 10th inning and the Milwaukee Brew- ers snapped a six-game los-

ing streak with a 6-5 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday night. Sogard started the rally

with a one-out double off Reds reliever Tim Adleman (5-10). After Manny Pina flew out to center field, Jesus Agu- ilar and Eric Thames walked to load the bases.

An 0-2 curveball then bounced away from Reds catcher Tucker Barnhart, allowing Sogard to slide in just ahead of Adleman’s tag attempt.

The Brewers have won three times in their last at-bat this season, two of which have come on wild pitches.

Josh Hader pitched three scoreless innings of relief for the Brewers before giving way to Corey Knebel (1-2) for the ninth and 10th.

Dragons fall: Alberto Mineo doubled and singled twice as the host South Bend Cubs defeated the Dayton Dragons 12-4 in a Midwest League game. Trailing 2-0, the Cubs took

the lead for good with five runs in the first inning. Aus- tin Upshaw hit a two-run single and then scored on a two-run double by Tyler Payne en route to the threerun lead.

South Bend added four runs in the fourth inning.

Manuel Rondon (11-6) picked up the win despite allowing four runs over five innings. Losing pitcher Tony Santillan (6-7) allowed eight

runs and 10 hits over 3⅓ innings.
