The Cincinnati Reds scooped up a win at Citizens Bank Park, dumping the Philadelphia Phillies, 4-2.

The Phillies, now 46-43, have lost 5 straight.

The Reds got a big at-bat from first baseman Diory Paulino. For the game, Paulino went 1-3 with a home run. In the top of the sixth, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 14th home run of the season gave Cincinnati a 3-2 lead.

"I didn't leave too many pitches out over the plate," said Matz.
