Cubs 13, Reds 9

CINCINNATI (AP) — Chicago beat the Reds 13-9 for their seventh win in nine games.

The defending World Series champions moved a season-high 10 games over .500.

This victory came with a late offensive surge, with the Cubs scoring nine runs in the last three innings.

Cubs star Kris Bryant exited after being hit in the left hand by a pitch, and lefty Anthony Rizzo wound up playing third base.
