Reds Top Pirates In 13
CINCINNATI (AP) - Jay Bruce ended Jason Grilli's saves streak with a solo homer in the ninth, and Brandon Phillips singled with the bases loaded in the 13th inning on Wednesday night, rallying the Cincinnati Reds to a 2-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Derrick Robinson and Shin-Soo Choo singled off Vin Mazzaro (3-2), and Joey Votto was walked intentionally to bring up Phillips, who singled up the middle.
Grilli started the ninth needing one more save to tie a club record. He had converted all of his 25 chances this season, one shy of Joel Hanrahan's 2011 club record to open a season.
Bruce connected on the first pitch for his fourth homer in his last six games. It was the first homer Grilli had allowed this season.

Traverse City wins their seventh game in-a-row as the Beach Bums beat the Wild Things 9-0 on Wednesday night. The Beach Bums opened up a 4-0 lead in the first inning, capping the frame on a three-run double by Zach Kometani. Carlo Testa smacked a two-run blast in the seventh inning and the Beach Bums added three more in the eighth to put the game away. Beaver County product Scott Dunn (6-0) was the winning pitcher for Traverse City with 6.1 innings of shutout baseball. Anthony Collazo (0-2) took the loss for Washington as the Wild Things dropped their fourth game in-a-row.

The Bruins erased deficits of 1-0, 4-2 and 5-4 before losing despite Patrice Bergeron's two goals.
