The Cincinnati Reds defeat the Chicago Cubs 6-4 on Friday night after a late rally. Jose Trevino drives in two runs with a bases-loaded single to right field, helping Cincinnati secure the lead and hold on for the win.
Multiple outlets report that Michael Conforto records three hits for Chicago. The Cubs have dropped two of their past three games, and they are within one run late. With the tying run at the plate in the ninth inning, Chicago gets two outs, but Michael Busch is caught stealing at second on a designed pitchout that is called by Trevino. The sequence ends the Cubs’ comeback attempt and preserves the Reds’ two-run margin.
Across coverage, the focus remains on Trevino’s key run-producing hit, Cincinnati’s late-inning execution, and Chicago’s inability to complete a final rally despite having a tying opportunity in the ninth.
