Owen Miller launched a game-tying two-run homer in the ninth inning to give the Cleveland Guardians a chance in extra innings, but Nick Sandlin walked in the go-ahead run for the Cincinnati Reds in the tenth inning to send the home team to a 5-4 loss Tuesday night.
With two outs and the bases loaded in the tenth inning, Jose Ramirez struck out on four pitches, sealing the loss for the Guardians and adding another chapter to his May slump. He entered the game slashing .200/.345/.333 in 55 plate appearances this month.
The Guardians didn’t do much against Reds starting pitcher Connor Overton.
