Wlimer Flores homered twice and drove in five runs as the SFGiants won a see-saw battle against the Cincinnati Reds for their second victory of the day Tuesday and their seventh in a row.
The lead was shortlived after Reds rookie infielder Christian Encarnacion-Strand blasted a three-run home run into the upper deck in left field, his first in the major leagues. Cincinnati jumped out to an 8-7 lead.
With the bases loaded and one out in the top of the sixth, Flores came through again, scoring Brett Wisely from third on a sacrifice fly to right field and tying the game at eight runs apiece before Matos was thrown out at third base on the same play. The Giants capitalized on a similar situation in the top of the seventh. With two outs and the bases loaded, Casey Schmitt drew a walk that scored the go-ahead run from third and gave the Giants the lead. Matos followed with a big two-run single that extended San Francisco's lead to 11-8.
