Reds rally late, beat the White Sox 5-4 in the 10th to spoil pope hat giveaway night

The Cincinnati Reds clinched a dramatic 5-4 victory over the Chicago White Sox in a thrilling game on Tuesday night. In the 10th inning, Elly De La Cruz made a crucial contribution by driving in Matt McLain with a sacrifice fly, helping the Reds end their three-game losing streak. This win marked the first annual payment installment for the team-branded papal-style hats giveaway, a unique event honoring Pope Leo XIV, a devoted fan of the White Sox.

Despite the unconventional souvenir, the White Sox managed to draw 38,113 fans, their ninth sellout of the season. Sean Newcomb took the loss for the White Sox, while Brock Burke secured the win for Cincinnati.
