Reds 6, Indians 4

Published Jun. 26, 2010 11:27 p.m. ET

Laynce Nix singled home the tiebreaking run in the sixth inning Saturday night and came around to score on a jarring dive into home, rallying the first-place Cincinnati Reds to their fifth straight win, 6-4 over the free-falling Cleveland Indians.

Nix's single off Justin Masterson (2-7) was the turning point in a ragged game on a hot, humid night.

Cleveland has lost a season-high seven in a row and 11 of 12, falling a season-low 21 games under .500. The Indians have the third-worst record in the majors at 26-47, on pace to lose 100 games only three years after they won the AL Central and came within one victory of the World Series.
