Elly caps 3-double night by scoring on walk-off fielder's choice
Cincinnati’s Elly De La Cruz doubled three times and scored the winning run as the Reds defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-2 in Thursday’s series opener at Great American Ball Park. De La Cruz reached base four times and led off the ninth inning with a 115.7 mph double to left field to ignite the decisive rally. With the bases loaded, Nathaniel Lowe beat out a potential inning-ending double play on a ground ball, allowing De La Cruz to cross the plate with the walk-off run.
