    Phillips, Cantu help Reds defeat Braves

    <h3>CINCINNATI 8, ATLANTA 7</h3>CINCINNATI (Ticker) -- Brandon Phillips and newcomer JorgeCantu helped the Cincinnati Reds put a damper on the AtlantaBraves' push toward the postseason.


    Phillips homered, had three hits and drove in the go-ahead runin the sixth inning as the Reds defeated the Braves, 8-7, onTuesday.


    Cantu, who was making his first start in a Reds uniform, had twohits and three RBI, and the Cincinnati bullpen pitched 4 1/3scoreless innings, to help give the Reds the victory in aback-and-forth game.


    Phillips broke the 7-7 tie in the bottom of the sixth when helined Peter Moylan's one-out offering to right field, scoringNorris Hopper. It was the fourth multi-hit game in the lastfive for the Reds' second baseman.


    Brian McCann homered and drove in two runs for the Braves, whoare in the midst of a crucial 10-game road trip against teamsbelow the .500 mark.


    Atlanta fell six games behind the division-leading New York Metsin the National League East, and remained one game back of theSan Diego Padres and Philadelphia Phillies in the wild cardstandings.


    A night after pounding Reds pitching, scoring 14 runs on 17hits, the Braves jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first twoinnings. Mark Teixeira hit an RBI single to left in the firstand Yunel Escobar had a two-run double in the top of the second.

    The Reds responded with five runs in the bottom of the thirdinning to take the lead. With two outs, rookie starter Jo-JoReyes walked Adam Dunn with the bases loaded and then gave up atwo-run single to Edwin Encarnacion.


    Oscar Villarreal entered in relief and surrendered a two-rundouble down the left field line to Cantu, giving the Reds a 5-3advantage.


    Atlanta countered with four runs of their own in the top of thefifth inning. Andruw Jones delivered a two-run double down theleft field line and scored on McCann's 14th home run of theseason, which gave the Braves a 7-5 lead.


    The Reds answered right back to tie the game at 7-7 in thebottom of the fifth on Phillips' solo home run to right andCantu's RBI single to left.


    Cincinnati's much maligned bullpen pitched solidly, giving uponly two hits, and Atlanta didn't threaten until the ninth whenit had runners on first and second with two outs.


    Reds closer David Weathers got Jeff Francouer to ground into afielder's choice for his 26th save of the season.


    Reyes was making just the sixth start of his career for theBraves after being called up from Class AAA Richmond earlier inthe day.


    The 22-year-old was taking the place of lefthander Chuck James,who was placed on the 15-day disabled with an inflamed shoulder,and lasted just 2 2/3 innings, giving up five runs on four hitsand four walks.


    Reds starter Bobby Livingston was just as ineffective, goingjust 4 2/3 innings and giving up a career-high six earned runson 10 hits.

    Phillips, Cantu help Reds defeat Braves

    <h3>CINCINNATI 8, ATLANTA 7</h3>CINCINNATI (Ticker) -- Brandon Phillips and newcomer JorgeCantu helped the Cincinnati Reds put a damper on the AtlantaBraves' push toward the postseason.


    Phillips homered, had three hits and drove in the go-ahead runin the sixth inning as the Reds defeated the Braves, 8-7, onTuesday.


    Cantu, who was making his first start in a Reds uniform, had twohits and three RBI, and the Cincinnati bullpen pitched 4 1/3scoreless innings, to help give the Reds the victory in aback-and-forth game.


    Cantu was obtained by the Reds in a trade for two Class AAApitchers on July 28. Two years after hitting 28 home runs and117 RBI, he was was sent to Class AA Durham by Tampa Bay on July19 while battling a series of injuries.


    "It feels really good to be part of this organization that isgiving me a chance," Cantu said. "I don't have to proveanything to anybody in Tampa Bay. There are no hard feelings.I'm just starting over and it's time to move on."


    Phillips broke the 7-7 tie in the bottom of the sixth when helined Peter Moylan's one-out offering to right field, scoringNorris Hopper. It was the fourth multi-hit game in the lastfive for the Reds' second baseman.


    "Baseball is a funny game. We fell behind and looked like wewere out of it but we chipped away and battled our way back,"Phillips said.


    Brian McCann homered and drove in two runs for the Braves, whoare in the midst of a crucial 10-game road trip against teamsbelow the .500 mark.


    Atlanta fell six games behind the division-leading New York Metsin the National League East, and remained one game back of theSan Diego Padres and Philadelphia Phillies in the wild cardstandings.


    A night after pounding Reds pitching, scoring 14 runs on 17hits, the Braves jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first twoinnings. Mark Teixeira hit an RBI single to left in the firstand Yunel Escobar had a two-run double in the top of the second.

    The Reds had swept the Braves in Atlanta in a three-game set inmid-July.


    "It was pretty nice to come back after last night," Cincinnatiinterim manager Pete Mackanin said. "We felt they came in hereto pay us back."


    Cincinnati responded with five runs in the bottom of the thirdinning to take the lead. With two outs, rookie starter Jo-JoReyes walked Adam Dunn with the bases loaded and then gave up atwo-run single to Edwin Encarnacion.


    Oscar Villarreal entered in relief and surrendered a two-rundouble down the left field line to Cantu, giving the Reds a 5-3advantage.

    Reyes was making just the sixth start of his career for theBraves after being called up from Class AAA Richmond earlier inthe day.


    The 22-year-old was taking the place of lefthander Chuck James,who was placed on the 15-day disabled with an inflamed shoulder,and lasted just 2 2/3 innings, giving up five runs on four hitsand four walks.


    "He walked the pitcher and he walked a few more. The stuff'sthere. The makeup is there," Braves manager Bobby Cox said. "Hejust gets off track and just misses. He just misses by a fewinches."


    Reds starter Bobby Livingston was just as ineffective, goingjust 4 2/3 innings and giving up a career-high six earned runson 10 hits.


    The Reds thought he pitched better than his numbers indicated.

    "Bobby didn't pitch badly," Mackanin said. "He made three orfour mistakes but he kept them off-balance for the most part.There is nothing to hang his head about."
