TJ Friedl hit a three-run homer, Nick Lodolo pitched six effective innings and the Cincinnati Reds beat the slumping Chicago Cubs 5-2 on Sunday.

Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman homered in the first inning, Gavin Stone had another strong outing and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Colorado Rockies 4-0 on Sunday. Though much of the focus is on Yoshinobu Yamamoto's rookie season and Clayton Kershaw's comeback, Stone is putting together a solid season for the Dodgers' staff. The rookie right-hander tossed five innings Sunday and won for the fifth time in his last seven starts.

The Rockies will look to take the series tonight against the Guardians.

The Rockies' loss, started by an opening homer from Jose Ramirez and underscored by a two-homer night from Josh Naylor, was punctuated by a rough performance by starter Ryan Feltner.

The Guardians have victories in seven of Triston McKenzie's last eight starts, but he does not have a win to show for it.
