MIAMI– TJ Friedl singled and hit three, Elly De La Cruz had three hits and stole his major league-leading 59th base, and Jeimer Candelario hit a two-run single during a seven-run 10th inning as the Cincinnati Reds beat the Miami Marlins 10 -4 on Thursday night.
Tyler Stephenson walked with the bases loaded to tie it at 3-3 in the 10th, then Friedl was hit by a pitch from Marlins reliever Emmanuel Ramirez (0-1), who faced six batters without recording an out. Spencer Steer’s single made it 6-3 before Candelario’s hit ended Ramirez’s game.
Steer scored on a fielding error by Marlins center fielder Derek Hill, and Candelario came home on Stuart Fairchild’s sacrifice fly.
Buck Farmer (1-0) pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings of relief as the Reds took three of four in the series.
Umpire Bill Miller ejected Reds manager David Bell for arguing balls and strikes in the seventh. It was Bell’s 31st career red card, surpassing Sparky Anderson for the most in club history.
The Marlins ended a 24-inning scoreless streak by Reds starter Hunter Greene with a three-run quarter to tie the game at 3. Hill got Miami on the board with an RBI fielder’s choice before Vidal Bruján and Jhonny Pereda followed with simple run scoring.
Greene’s streak was the longest by a Cincinnati starter since Tom Browning went 25 innings without allowing a run from June 6-25, 1989.
Greene completed six innings of three-run ball. He allowed six hits, walked two, struck out five and walked two batters.
The Reds scored twice against Marlins starter Kyle Tyler in the first. De La Cruz scored and advanced two bases on a wild pitch and throwing error by catcher Pereda. Stephenson’s groundout scored De La Cruz before Friedl hit a solo home run.
Friedl also had an RBI single in the third.
Tyler gave up three runs and five hits in 4 1/3 innings. He walked two and struck out three.
