| Padres end Reds’ 10-game win streak |
CINCINNATI The Cincinnati Reds had their 10-game win streak brought to a halt at the hands of former teammates as the San Diego Padres took down Major League Baseball’s hottest team 11-5 on Monday.
Yonder Alonso recorded four hits while pitcher Edinson Volquez squeaked the win, both players helping to slow their old team after being traded from the Reds in the same off-season deal.
“I was trying to make better pitches (after allowing three runs in the first inning),” Volquez told reporters. In the end, he allowed five runs and struck out five in the triumph.
“I know this ballpark and how the ball carries and I wanted to keep the ball down.”
