Back in the friendly confines of Great American Ball Park, the Cincinnati Reds were able to recapture their winning ways, at least for a night. Here are the main storylines from their 8-6 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday.
Box score: Reds 8, Brewers 6
The Reds came out swinging. When Billy Hamilton hits a leadoff home run, chances are it’ll be a good night for the Reds offense. Hamilton’s solo homer, his second of the year, sparked a four-run first inning to give the Reds an early lead on Brewers starter Junior Guerra.
