Reds fall to Crew in finale after early rally

CINCINNATI -- Ryan Braun, Hernan Perez and Jonathan Lucroy homered as the Brewers came from behind to beat the Reds for the second straight day, this time a rain-delayed, 5-4 win on Mother's Day at Great American Ball Park that featured a thrilling finish.

The Reds took a 4-1 lead after four innings, but the Brewers chipped away with a run apiece in every inning from the fifth through the eighth. Lucroy drove in two of those runs, first with a well-placed double in the sixth inning, then with a booming home run off Reds reliever Ross Ohlendorf in the eighth that gave the Brewers the lead.
