Scooter Gennett hits 4 home runs for Reds to tie MLB record

Scooter Gennett tied a major league record with four homers - becoming the 17th player to accomplish the feat - and matched the club mark by driving in 10 runs during a 13-1 victory over the slumping St. Louis Cardinals.
 
No major leaguer had ever had five hits, four homers and 10 RBIs in a game, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Gennett's 17 total bases also were a team record.
 
Tim Adleman (4-2) gave up one run - on Stephen Piscotty's homer - in seven innings, sending the Cardinals to their season-high fifth loss in a row. They've dropped eight of 10 overall.
 
The Reds have won three in a row against the Cardinals for the first time since 2015. They've taken nine of their last 14 against St. Louis.
