Gavin Lux had a two-run homer among his two hits and Brady Singer allowed one run in six innings as the Cincinnati Reds defeated the Los Angeles Angels 4-1 in Anaheim, Calif., on Monday.

Gavin Lux hits an early two-run homer and the Cincinnati Reds hit three leadoff triples during a 4-1 victory over the Angels.

Elly De La Cruz and the Cinicinnati Reds are in Los Angeles tonight to face off with the Angels in game one of a three games series.

The bullpen desperately needed some rest and Singer, Phillips, Mey, and Barlow helped them get an extra day's rest while also still securing a win. The Reds improved to 66-60 on the season and now sit just one game back of the New York Mets for the third and final National League Wild Card spot.
