KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Reds got three homers during a five-run fifth inning in a 7-4 win in Kansas City on Wednesday night that wrapped up their three-game series sweep. Matt McLain highlighted the big inning with his three-run shot, and Stuart Fairchild and Jonathan India also went deep. Spencer Steer homered earlier to give the Reds four in the game. All of them came off Daniel Lynch, who is now winless for Kansas City in his last 15 starts. Ben Lively allowed 10 hits but only two runs while pitching into the sixth inning to earn the win for Cincinnati. The Reds have won five straight and eight of their last 10.
