The Reds made it 4-1 in the seventh on a two-out homer by Rece Hinds. Jakob Junis started the inning in place of Smith and was greeted by a single by Matt McClain. Jose Trevino grounded into a double play, but Hinds, the No.9 hitter, homered to center.

Will Benson and Rece Hinds each hit a solo home run, and the host Cincinnati Reds posted a victory over the Cleveland Guardians on Saturday.

The Guardians activated Cecconi (oblique) from the 15-day injured list Saturday. Cecconi suffered a left oblique strain in mid-March and began the regular season on the IL. He's getting the start against Cincinnati in his return to the big-league roster Saturday after topping out at 5.
