Rookie phenom Elly De La Cruz recorded Cincinnati's first cycle in 34 years as the host Reds rallied from five runs down to match their modern-era franchise record with a 12th straight win, defeating the Atlanta Braves 11-10 on Friday.
De La Cruz again electrified the sellout crowd at Great American Ball Park as he had a key two-run homer to spark the early rally and finished off his cycle with a triple in the sixth inning. It was the first Cincinnati cycle since Eric Davis accomplished the feat vs. the San Diego Padres on June 2, 1989.
Alex Young recorded the final out of the fifth and the first out of the sixth to earn his third win in as many appearances this week out of the bullpen. Alexis Diaz posted his 21st save in as many chances when Orlando Arcia grounded into a game-ending double play. Matt Olson homered twice for the Braves, who had their second eight-game win streak this season snapped. Atlanta belted five home runs to Cincinnati's four.
De La Cruz, the Reds' third baseman, then made an impressive catch in foul territory to retire Olson in the third inning when he turned and sped toward the wall along the left field foul line.
