Reds Edge Cubs in Rain-Delayed Thriller | Chicago Cubs News

The Reds stunned the Cubs 7-5 in a rain-delayed thriller, with rookie Sal Stewart crushing his third straight homer and Dane Myers and Tyler Stephenson delivering clutch blasts to seal the win. Despite Pete Crow-Armstrong’s two homers — including a ninth-inning dagger — the Reds answered back emphatically, snapping a six-game losing streak against Chicago. Elly De La Cruz exited early with a leg issue after a big hit, adding drama. The Cubs honored legends Jon Lester, Jody Davis, and Vince Lloyd before the game, with Greg Maddux throwing out the ceremonial first pitch. Up next: Brady Singer starts for Cincinnati against the Padres, while the Cubs’ starter vs. the Brewers remains TBD.
