CINCINNATI - The finale of the Cincinnati Reds series with the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday afternoon was postponed because of heavy rain in Cincinnati.

The Brewers won 7-2 behind a two-run homer by Christian Yelich and four solid innings from Wade Miley, who came off the disabled list to start.
Miley, who pitched a no-hitter for the Reds in 2021, began the season on the injured list with shoulder problems.
The Brewers won 9-5 on Tuesday night, and the Reds took the Monday opener 10-8.
Milwaukee moves on for a weekend series in Baltimore. The Reds begin a series Friday with the reeling White Sox in Chicago.
