Votto HR backs Straily, Reds beat Brewers for 5th win in row (Yahoo Sports)

Joey Votto homered and drove in two runs, Dan Straily pitched a career-high eight innings and the Cincinnati Reds took advantage of some sloppy Milwaukee fielding, beating the Brewers 6-4 Tuesday night for their fifth straight win. Adam Duvall put the Reds ahead for good in the third with the first of his two doubles. Straily (12-8) pitched around solo home runs by Keon Broxton and Jonathan Villar to improve to 8-2 since the All-Star break.
