Yasiel Puig scored the winning run for Cincinnati on an outfield throw that got away in the 11th inning Tuesday night. Puig had also homered in the Reds’ 5-4 win. Christian Yelich’s 31st homer had given Milwaukee a 4-2 lead, but it was his throw which short-hopped first baseman Eric Thames and allowed the winning run to score. The Brewers also got home runs from Thames and Mike Moustakas. Corbin Burnes took the loss. Jhoulys Chacin starts the third game of the four-game series tonight (Wednesday) against the Reds.
