Ramirez, Michael Brantley and Yan Gomes had three hits apiece, and Melky Cabrera and Jason Kipnis each drove in two runs.The game was tied at 2 when Francona had Diaz hit for Mike Clevinger (8-7) with a runner on and one out. Diaz responded with a run-scoring double off the wall in left, sparking a big inning for the Indians.“He’s such an advanced hitter for a kid that doesn’t have a lot of major league at-bats,” Francona said. “That was a heck of an at-bat. You look at the score at the end of the game and that wasn’t how the majority of the game was played.”The Indians increased their AL Central lead to 12 1/2 games over idle Minnesota after receiving an update from team president Chris Antonetti on the status of outfielder Leonys Martin, who is recovering from a life-threatening bacterial infection. Martin is in stable condition at the Cleveland Clinic.“It was very serious,” Antonetti said. “Thankfully he’s made a lot of progress in the last 24 to 36 hours and he has regained a lot of the organ function. He’s in a good path right now and we’re hopeful he’ll make a full recovery. But, he has a long way to go.”Tucker Barnhart, Scooter Gennett and Curt Casali homered for last-place Cincinnati, which has dropped two in a row. Homer Bailey (1-10) was tagged for five runs and 10 hits in 5 1/3 innings.“I thought Homer battled through a lot of adversity,” Reds manager Jim Riggleman said. “We made him throw a lot of extra pitches. It is too bad he got charged with some extra runs there. He threw the ball good.”Barnhart hit his eighth homer in the second, putting Cincinnati in front and stopping the Reds’ four-game homerless streak.Gennett tied it at 2 with his 18th homer off Clevinger in the fifth Jay Buhner Jersey , but Cleveland grabbed control in the sixth. Diaz scored on Brantley’s double. Cabrera added a two-run single, and Kipnis doubled in Ramirez and Brandon Guyer. Gomes tacked on an RBI double that made it 9-2.Clevinger walked six in five innings, but got his first win since July 1. He allowed five hits and struck out four.“The fastball is the one thing I did have, didn’t have a lick of anything else,” said Clevinger, who had lost four straight decisions. “I walked six guys and got my first dub in a month. That’s baseball being baseball.”Ramirez drove Bailey’s 1-2 pitch into the Reds’ bullpen in right for a two-run homer in the third. The ball carried just inside the foul pole and just over right fielder Phillip Ervin’s glove.“I had him swinging over the top of that pitch early in the at-bat,” Bailey said. “How he kept the ball fair, I don’t know. It’s a little short down the line but he’s having a great season. When you’re having a season like that those things happen.”STRANGE TIMESRookie utilityman Brandon Dixon tossed a perfect ninth for the Reds in his first major league pitching appearance. Reds reliever Michael Lorenzen played right field in the ninth in his first major league defensive appearance at a position other than pitcher.Dixon became the fourth position player to pitch for Cincinnati this year.REED RETURNSThe Reds recalled left-hander Cody Reed from Triple-A Louisville and optioned right-hander Keury Mella to the minors. Reed posted a 2.70 ERA with 43 strikeouts in his last 36 2/3 innings.

GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) — Reliever Michael Lorenzen has begun the Cincinnati Reds‘ mound-to-outfield experiment, pitching one inning and then moving to center field Monday in a game against the Cleveland Indians. It didn’t take long for the ball to find him.Lorenzen chased Jose Ramirez’s leadoff double in the bottom of the sixth inning of a 5-5 tie, his biggest test during his first time in the outfield.“It was fun Denard Span Jersey ,” Lorenzen said. “I didn’t necessarily get any fly balls but I had a couple hit to me. Hopefully next time I get to run one down.”The Reds are exploring options for replacing center fielder Billy Hamilton, who signed with the Royals. Lorenzen was a center fielder at Cal State Fullerton who also closed games on occasion. The Reds drafted him as a pitcher in 2013, and he has lobbied for a dual role in the majors.He finally got his chance Monday.Lorenzen came on to pitch the bottom of the fifth inning and retired all three Indians, two by strikeout. Instead of heading off to ice his shoulder, he looked for his batting helmet. He faced Mike Clevinger and struck out swinging, then replaced Nick Senzel in center field.He started shading Ramirez, the first batter, toward right field, then moved back the other way. Ramirez hit the ball to the gap in right for a double.“The game knows,” Lorenzen said. “It was funny because I was actually shaded to right center. I ended up moving into left center.”In the seventh inning, Cleveland’s Eric Stamets went from first to third on a single to center. Lorenzen fielded the ball and threw to third too late.“I’d rather err on the side of overdoing it, that’s my personality,” Lorenzen said.Lorenzen left after his two innings in the outfield.First-year manager David Bell likes the option of using Lorenzen in center. After getting him ready to pitch during the first part of camp http://www.marinersfanproshop.com/authentic-edgar-martinez-jersey , Bell finally gave him a chance to play center.“That’s what we all wanted to see,” Bell said after the game. “It is just different. It’s all new to us. I’ve never been close to a pitcher who can do these things.”Lorenzen’s success as a hitter in the majors has inspired Bell to try to unusual, two-position arrangement.Last season, Lorenzen went 4-2 with a 3.11 ERA and one save in 42 relief appearances and three starts. He also batted .290 and led major league pitchers with four homers — including one grand slam — and 10 RBIs in 31 at-bats. As a pinch-hitter, he went 3 for 13 with two homers.Six times, he entered the game as a pinch-hitter and stayed in to pitch. From June 24-30, he homered in three straight at-bats, including a grand slam. He became the first major league pitcher to homer in three straight at-bats since Colorado’s Mike Hampton in 2001.Senzel is a leading candidate for the job in center. He went 1 for 3 on Monday and is batting .381.NOTES: The Reds reassigned RHP Jimmy Herget, RHP Felix Jorge, RHP Keury Mella, RHP Alex Powers, OF Jose Siri and RHP Jackson Stephens to their minor league camp.
