The Cincinnati Reds beat the Minnesota Twins 4-2 in a shortened game on Wednesday night. After a lengthy rain delay, Nick Lodolo gave up a home run to Twins' leadoff hitter Byron Buxton, but settled down nicely to give up just two runs on three hits over six innings.

With more weather bearing down on Greater Cincinnati, the Reds tacked on one run apiece in the second and third innings. Matt McLain's second-inning single plated Jose Trevino, and Will Benson notched his third RBI of the series in the third when his single drove in Steer, who doubled.
