CINCINNATI (AP) — Rodolfo Castro hit a three-run homer and an RBI single, and the Pittsburgh Pirates completed a four-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds with a 10-4 victory. Rookie Oneil Cruz connected for a two-run drive, helping last-place Pittsburgh to its first four-game win streak since mid-July. Ke’Bryan Hayes had three of the Pirates’ 12 hits. It was Pittsburgh’s first four-game series sweep in Cincinnati since July 11-14, 1991. Kyle Farmer and Austin Romine homered for the lowly Reds, who have dropped six in a row. Nick Lodolo struck out 11 while working 6 1/3 innings of three-run ball.
