Michael Busch singled in the winning run in the 10th inning after hitting a tying homer in the eighth and the Chicago Cubs won their seventh straight by rallying again to beat the Cincinnati Reds 3-2 on Tuesday night.

They’ve won 13 straight at home, their best streak at Wrigley Field since a 14-game run in 2008.

The Cubs scored two in the ninth on Monday to beat the Reds, who have lost a season-high five in a row.

Taillon gave up two runs and five hits in 5 2/3 innings. Ryan Rolison (3-0) worked the 10th.

RHP Brady Singer (2-2, 5.57 ERA) starts for Cincinnati and RHP Colin Rea (4-1, 4.41) pitches for Chicago.
