Big Game from Rodriguez Not Enough, Reds Lose
Though he had a terrific game, Johnathan Rodriguez could not prevent his team, the Cincinnati Reds, from absorbing a loss. New York won the game, 9-6. Rodriguez was 3 for 5 with 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. The New York winning streak has reached 3 games.

The Reds had been locked in a 0-0 tie with the Mets going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 28-year old second baseman Luis Arraez came to the plate. Arraez hit a run-scoring double on a 1-2 sinker from Cincinnati hurler Jhony Brito. It was Arraez's 10th double of the year.

"I still think this team has room for improvement," Arraez told the New York Observer.
