Reds Rally in 9th to Beat Angels, Extend 10-Game Winning Streak

The Cincinnati Reds and Los Angeles Angels have recently faced off in a closely contested series with the Reds securing multiple victories. On Tuesday, Hunter Greene delivered an impressive performance with 12 strikeouts and no walks over 6 1/3 innings, helping the Reds rally in the ninth inning to beat the Angels 6-4, marking their 10th consecutive win over Los Angeles dating back to 2019. Key contributions came from Noelvi Marte, Miguel Andujar, and Elly De La Cruz, who scored from first on two separate hits by Andujar, showcasing their aggressive baserunning. Despite the loss, the Angels fought hard with Yusei Kikuchi pitching seven strong innings in a 2-1 defeat on Wednesday, with Luis Rengifo hitting the decisive RBI single in the eighth inning. The Reds' bullpen management has been crucial as they rested key relievers while securing wins, and the team remains in contention for the National League wild-card spot, just one game behind the Mets. Overall, the series highlighted strong pitching and timely hitting from the Reds while the Angels showed resilience but fell short in critical moments.
