Cincinnati Reds ride strong pitching in wild 12-inning win against Rockies

DENVER – The Cincinnati Reds kept spoiling opportunity after opportunity Saturday, but their pitchers wouldn’t let them lose.

The Reds were 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position at one point. They failed to score their ghost runner from second base in the 10th inning, the first time that's happened in extra innings this season. They stranded 11 runners on base.

Lucas Sims couldn't hold onto a two-run lead in the 11th inning, but he made enough pitches to let his offense see another inning with a pair of strikeouts.

Finally, in the 12th inning, Nick Castellanos hit an RBI double and scored on a groundout.
