Three-run 8th inning rally helps Reds beat Cardinals, 7-4

Published Aug. 10, 2016 12:24 a.m. ET

ST. LOUIS (AP) Adam Duvall drove in two runs and Tyler Holt's double drove in the game-winning run as the Cincinnati Reds beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-4 on Tuesday night.

Holt's double off Matt Bowman (1-4) broke a 4-4 tie in the eighth. He then scored from second on an infield hit by Billy Hamilton after Cardinals second baseman Matt Carpenter bobbled a barehanded attempt to get the speedy Hamilton at first.

Duvall's two-run single in the third broke a career high 0-for-18 skid and gave the Reds a 2-1 lead.
