The Cincinnati Reds bested the Milwaukee Brewers by a score of 5-2, with second baseman Robinson Cano getting the main credit. On the day, Cano was 1 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for the Reds. Danny Salazar was the winner. Over 5.1 innings, he allowed 2 runs on 4 hits, with 2 walks and 7 strikeouts. Sal Romano got the save, his 2nd in 4 chances.

Devin Mesoraco drew 2 walks in 4 plate appearances for Cincinnati. The 30-year old catcher had a key at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring walk off Daniel Hudson. It was his 13th walk of the season.

Mesoraco called the triumph "a good team win."

The Reds bumped their record to 77-48 with this latest triumph.
