Eugenio Suárez launched a 406-foot grand slam off Jonathan Pintaro and homered twice as the Cincinnati Reds jumped to a 9-0 lead over the New York Mets in the second inning. The grand slam registered a 105.9 mph exit velocity and a 36° launch angle on Pintaro's 90.7 mph cutter. It was Suárez's first multi-homer game in a Reds uniform since September 5, 2020 and his first Reds grand slam since May 24, 2018, and he drove in six runs through two innings. The outburst delivered a decisive early advantage for Cincinnati and underscored a power surge from Suárez that can shift the game's momentum and the Reds' offense tonight.
