The Guardians scored more than five runs for the first time in the month of June and Carlos Santana won somebody a new car with a grand slam.

Riding Christian Yelich’s third-inning home run and more strong pitching, the Brewers knocked off the Reds, 3-2, on Monday night.

Cincinnati Reds LHP Andrew Abbott pitched the Reds' first complete-game shutout since 2022 and first 9-inning CG shutout since 2021.
