The Cubs took on the Reds Saturday afternoon after an impressive comeback victory on Friday night. Cincinnati went up again, but Chicago’s rally came up short this time and the home team won.
The Reds immediately jumped in front for a second consecutive game when Elly De La Cruz hit a two-run homer off of Colin Rea in the bottom of the 1st. Justin Turner got one of those runs back when he blasted a solo homer against Andrew Abbott in the 3rd.
Will Benson hit a sacrifice fly in the 4th inning to increase the advantage to 3-1.
