The Brewers stretched their series winning streak over the Reds to 12 in a row when they took Wednesday's matinee at Great American Ball Park, 9-1. After taking Monday's series opener, the Brewers bounced back from Tuesday's loss in which the Reds enjoyed a win that featured a home-run robbery by outfielder T.J. Friedl that rivaled a walk-off win.

Tuesday night, the Reds scored in the last two innings off Brewers relievers, overcame what could’ve been a costly error, and ended the game with TJ Friedl robbing the score-tying home run. Not only that, but Andrew Abbott, who had allowed just a pair of earned runs during his six starts in May, was on the mound against an opener for the Brewers.

The Reds lost several recent games due to allowing late-inning runs. On Tuesday, they did the late-game scoring to snap a three-game losing streak.
