Tony Cingrani (3-0), filling in for the injured Johnny Cueto, pitched seven strong innings as Cincinnati extended its franchise-best winning streak at Wrigley Field to 11 games.

Garza dropped to 0-2 against the Reds this season, allowing 13 runs in nine innings. The three homers he gave up were the most since last July 5 at Atlanta. Cody Ransom hit a solo home run for the Cubs, who have lost seven of their last nine games. The third baseman committed three of Chicago's four errors as the Cubs suffered their worst defeat of the season. With two outs in the second, Frazier connected on a 1-2 pitch that wound up in the centre-field basket for his seventh home run of the season. It was his first homer on the road this year and first one since April 24th. An inning later, Votto tagged Garza for a two-run shot. It was Votto's 11th of the season.
