Guardians Best Reds in Pitching Duel
Cleveland turned a good performance from starting pitcher Sonny Gray into a 2-1 triumph over the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park. Gray got the win, improving to 6-8. He gave up 6 hits and walked 0 over 7.1 innings. He allowed 1 run. At 59-61, the Guardians are currently third in the American League Central Division.

Kyle Manzardo, who finished 3rd in the AL in extra base hits with 73 in 2025, had a direct impact on the outcome. Manzardo contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the first inning to put Cleveland up, 1-0.

"Scoring was at a premium tonight," Manzardo said.
