It was back-and-forth, but the Reds failed to capitalize on their routing of Johan Santana as the Mets gained their tenth straight win. Cincinnati's 10 wins in the previous 15 games paled by comparison.

The Mets scored two in the fourth (and the fifth and sixth) while the Reds tallied five times in the bottom of the 4th. Cincinnati added three runs in the bottom of the 7th for an 8-6 lead. Francisco Cordero couldn't hold the lead, blowing up to get just one out while allowing six hits and a walk. Bill Bray got the last two outs, too late. Cordero was the real goat of this game. Starter Johnny Cueto gave up six runs in 5 1/3 innings, on six hits and three walks. He struck out six. Jeremy Affeldt got the last two outs in the 6th, and Mike Lincoln and David Weathers each threw shutout innings in between.

Adam Dunn and Edwin Encarnacion had homers in the fourth. Encarnacion had three hits. Jeff Keppinger had two hits, including a triple. Encarnacion, Jay Bruce, Javier Valentin and Ken Griffey had doubles.

Reds and Mets again tonight, with Bronson Arroyo and John Maine.
