Reds Beat Diamondbacks 4-3 in Suspended 10-Inning Game

The Arizona Diamondbacks were defeated twice by the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday, including a 13-1 blowout and a 4-3 loss in a suspended game that resumed into extra innings. In the first game, Eugenio Suarez hit his 100th home run at Great American Ballpark, but poor pitching performances by Ryne Nelson and Kendall Graveman led to the lopsided loss, with backup catcher Jose Herrera even pitching an inning. The second game, suspended Friday due to rain with the score tied 3-3, resumed Saturday and ended with a walk-off double by Christian Encarnacion-Strand in the 10th inning, marking the Reds' first extra-inning win this season. Encarnacion-Strand also hit a home run in the sixth inning before the suspension, while the Diamondbacks' bullpen struggled in extra innings despite solid pitching from Jalen Beeks and Ryan Thompson. The resumption of the second game was marred by difficult weather conditions and injuries, including catcher Gabriel Moreno being sidelined. The Diamondbacks will look to rebound with Ryne Nelson starting against Reds' Nick Martinez in the next scheduled game.
