First baseman Allen Craig’s throwing error in the seventh inning helped the Cincinnati Reds rally for their fourth straight win, 5-3 over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night.
 
Craig fielded Ryan Hanigan’s slow grounder with the bases loaded and threw wildly to first base, allowing two runs to score for a 3-2 lead off Adam Wainwright (7-9). Zack Cozart’s sacrifice fly completed a three-run rally.
 
Todd Frazier had a solo homer off Wainwright, who allowed only two hits over the first six innings before letting it slip away.
 
Alfredo Simon (1-1) escaped a bases-loaded threat in the seventh by striking out Matt Holliday. Aroldis Chapman fanned three in the ninth for his 12th save in 16 chances.
 
The game drew 40,217 fans, Cincinnati’s seventh sellout of the season.

SILVIS, Ill. (AP) — Troy Matteson is the first-round leader at the John Deere Classic in Silvis, Ill. Matteson carded 10 birdies and no bogeys for a 10-under 61 that puts him three strokes ahead of Ricky Barnes.

Steve Stricker is four shots back as he tries to win the tournament a fourth consecutive time.

1986 Atlantic High School Alum Chad Proehl shot a three over par 74 in his first round Thursday, carding a four over 39 on the front and a one under 35 on the back nine.  This is the third time that Proehl has played in the John Deere Classic.

High School Baseball District Semi-Final played at Guthrie Center.  Jim Field and Rod Christensen have the call.
