Melky’s HR leads Tribe to 10th win in 12 games
On a long night at Great American Ball Park, Melky Cabrera’s two-run shot off Reds lefty Cody Reed in the sixth inning served as the decisive blow in a 4-3 victory for the American League Central-leading Indians. The home run helped Cleveland sweep the three-game Interleague set, win the Ohio Cup against its instate rivals and gave the Tribe 10 wins in their past dozen games. Preston Tucker hit his fifth homer of the season for the Reds, who scored three in the first inning but didn’t push a run across afterward despite loading the bases in the ninth.
