CINCINNATI (AP) — TJ Friedl hit a decisive two-out, two-run double in the sixth inning and the Cincinnati Reds rallied for their third straight win, 6-5 over the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday night. Cincinnati has won eight of its last 11 games to climb within two games of the third NL wild-card spot. Byron Buxton’s solo homer off Andrew Abbott put the Twins ahead 1-0 in the third. David Festa held Cincinnati hitless until the fourth when Will Benson’s two-run double put the Reds ahead 2-1. Festa left the game in the fourth with a right hand contusion after allowing four runs, two earned. Jake Fraley drove in two more runs with a single to make the score 4-1.
