Cleveland Beaten, 4-2, by Cincinnati
The Cincinnati Reds got a good effort from starter Marcus Stroman in defeating the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field. The final score was 4-2. Doug Hall, now 5-0, was credited with the win in 1 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit, while striking out 1 and walking 0. Dave Parsons earned the save for Cincinnati, his 15th.

José Juárez came through with a big-time hit for Cincinnati. The third baseman smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"The only difference is executing pitches and not executing pitches," said Stroman. "When you don't execute, you get beat. When you execute, you usually give your team a chance to win."

The victory gives Cincinnati a record of 24-21.
