Christian Yelich hit his first homer of the season and Kolten Wong had three hits, helping the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Cincinnati Reds 9-4 on Sunday. Yelich, who has been hampered by back trouble for much of the season, hit a solo drive in the ninth against Brad Brach. He grounded to second in the eighth, falling a home run shy of the Brewers' first cycle since Yelich in 2018, also against the Reds. Jesse Winker hit a solo homer in the third for Cincinnati, and Nick Castellanos connected for a two-run shot in the ninth. Winker became the first Reds batter with five homers in a three-game series since Willie Greene from Sept. 24-26, 1996, against the Cubs.
