PHILADELPHIA – After the Reds’ offense slumped throughout their three-game weekend series against the Philadelphia Phillies, it woke up in the seventh inning Sunday.
The Reds had five consecutive batters reach base, scoring three runs in a 4-3 comeback win at Citizens Bank Park to avoid being swept. The Reds snapped a three-game losing streak and won for just the second time in seven games this month.
Facing the middle of the Phillies lineup in the bottom of the ninth inning, Reds closer Raisel Iglesias earned his 13th save of the season.
