Almost a full day prior to Encarnacion-Strand achieving the club's first walk-off win of 2025, the teams played several innings in steady rain that appeared to increase in intensity as the Friday night portion of the contest wore on. The Reds trailed 3-0 but climbed back to tie the game in the sixth. That's when the tarp was rolled onto the field.

What a day at Great American Ball Park! After finishing a big win from Friday's suspended game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Cincinnati Reds and Christian Encarnacion-Strand decided to keep the celebration going with a five-run first inning later on Saturday for the next game in the series.
