MLB wrap: Indians dominate Reds for 6th straight win image

Cleveland was good all around in its 11-1 victory over Cincinnati on Sunday.

The Indians excelled at the plate, notching 18 hits and four home runs. On the mound, Trevor Bauer tallied nine strikeouts in seven innings of work.

Cleveland (50-38) enters the All-Star break riding a six-game winning streak and sits 5 1/2 games back from the AL Central-leading Twins.

The Reds on the other hand have lost two straight and are fifth in the NL Central standings, but still just 4 1/2 games behind the first-place Cubs.

Studs of the Night

Jesus Aguilar hit two home runs in the Brewers' 6-5 loss to the Pirates.

Jay Bruce went yard twice as the Phillies took down the Mets 8-3.

Duds of the Night

Anthony Santander went 0-for-4 at the plate in the Orioles' 6-1 loss to the Blue Jays.

Rafael Devers was held hitless in five at-bats as Boston topped Detroit 6-3.

Highlight

Colorado's Nolan Arenado bare-handed this ball and made a great throw to first.

What's Next?

All-Star break — Yes, the All-Star break is upon us. So you know what that means. The 2019 Home Run Derby kicks off Monday, July 8 at 8 p.m. ET, but fan favorite Christian Yelich was forced to pull out due to a back injury. Then there's the All-Star Game on Tuesday, July 9 at 7:30 p.m. Plenty of fun festivities are ahead before regular season play returns Thursday.
