Jesse Winker homered and drove in four runs while Luis Castillo allowed just one unearned run over seven innings as the Cincinnati Reds held off the visiting St. Louis Cardinals 5-3 Saturday night.
The Reds committed three errors but got a pair of sensational plays from center fielder Shogo Akiyama and third baseman Eugenio Suarez to capture their sixth straight game against the Cardinals, their longest such streak since 2003.
Castillo (4-10) got the win after four consecutive no-decisions. He allowed four hits while striking out nine and walking three. Heath Hembree pitched the ninth for his eighth save and second in as many games.
