Spencer Steer hit a two-run home run and Nick Lodolo allowed two runs on three hits in five innings to help the Cincinnati Reds beat the Minnesota Twins 4-2 in a game called in the sixth inning because of rain.

With more weather bearing down on Greater Cincinnati, the Reds tacked on one run apiece in the second and third innings. Matt McLain's second-inning single plated Jose Trevino, and Will Benson notched his third RBI of the series in the third when his single drove in Steer, who doubled.

CINCINNATI -- For the first time this season, the Cincinnati Reds are four games over .500 at 39-35. Their 4-2 win over the Minnesota Twins Wednesday night gives them four straight wins, four straight series wins and nine wins in their last 11 games.
