Nick Senzel walk-off homer ends homerless streak, sweeps Texas Rangers

After two comeback wins against the Texas Rangers, the Cincinnati Reds apparently decided they needed a little more late-inning drama.

A blown save in the top of the ninth inning set up their second walk-off win of the series as Nick Senzel drilled a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Reds a 5-3 victory. Senzel’s homer snapped an eight-game homerless streak and completed a three-game sweep over the Rangers.

Senzel, who was mobbed at the plate by his teammates, lined a full-count offspeed pitch into the first row of seats in left field to set off the fireworks.
