CLEVELAND (AP) – José RamÃrez hit a two-run homer and an RBI triple, leading the Cleveland Indians to a 9-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Monday night. Wilson Ramos also hit a two-run homer, Amed Rosario was 4 for 5 with an RBI and Cleveland used five pitchers in a planned bullpen game to end Cincinnati’s five-game winning streak. Matt Garza (2-0) pitched two scoreless innings. The right-hander was the Indians’ second pitcher and worked the third and fourth, striking out three. Luis Castillo (6-11) allowed eight runs – including two homers – in 3 1/3 innings. The right-hander lost for the first time since June 20, a span of nine starts. Bradley Zimmer hit a 471-foot homer to center field leading off the seventh – the longest by an Indians player this season – and drove in two runs. The game was the makeup of a rainout at Progressive Field on May 9. The game was played in a steady rain for several innings. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports
