    Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker and first baseman Joey Votto agreed a week ago to give the slugger a much-needed break on Wednesday against the Pirates.

    Turns out, the rest of the Reds' offense took the night off, too.

    A.J. Burnett allowed just two hits over seven innings, Matt Hague delivered a two-run double and the Pittsburgh Pirates edged the Reds 2-1 on Wednesday night.
