CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Johnny Cueto was striking out batters. Joey Votto and Jay Bruce were driving in runs. For one night, the Cincinnati Reds felt like themselves. It hasnt happened that often this season. Cueto matched his career high with 12 strikeouts in six innings, and Votto and Bruce -- the missing core of Cincinnatis batting order much of the season -- each drove in runs Wednesday night, leading the Reds to a 5-0 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Cueto (6-5) followed his shortest start of the season with one of his most dominating. He gave up three singles and didnt walk a batter, leaving after his 112th pitch. Cueto lasted only five innings during an 8-0 loss to Philadelphia on Friday. The Dodgers fouled off a lot of pitches, quickly elevating Cuetos pitch count. He lobbied for one more inning but manager Bryan Price decided hed had enough. "Thats the way it was," Cueto said, with trainer Tomas Vera translating. "I wasnt trying to strike everybody out, but they made me throw a lot of pitches." Jonathan Broxton escaped a bases-loaded, one-out threat in the seventh by getting Hanley Ramirez to ground into a double play. "All were trying to do down there is get the outs in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings and let (closer Aroldis Chapman) have the spotlight," Broxton said. "Thats been working most of the year." Votto doubled home a pair of runs off Hyun-Jin Ryu (7-3), who had won his last four starts. Votto hadnt driven in a run since May 10, missing 23 games in between because of a strained muscle above his left knee. Bruce missed two weeks following knee surgery. He hit a solo homer off Ryu, who gave up four runs in six innings. The Reds are hoping that with Votto and Bruce back in the lineup, they can get a lot more out of an offence that ranks second to last in the majors in runs scored. "We have a history here," Price said. "We have a real good understanding that we have players who have accomplished things at a high level here. You saw some of that tonight. Hopefully, itll be a precursor to good things." The loss snapped the Dodgers three-game winning streak, which matched their season high. Theyre 4-2 on a trip that concludes Thursday and 22-13 overall on the road. Dodgers left fielder Matt Kemp was ejected in the second inning by plate umpire Seth Buckminster, a minor league umpire brought up to the majors. Kemp was called out on strikes and continued to argue from the dugout. It was Kemps eighth career ejection and his second this season. Kemp was ejected by Angel Hernandez on April 26 for arguing a called third strike. Cueto faced the minimum 15 batters through five innings -- Dee Gordon singled but was picked off. He also fanned 10 over that span, including five in a row while getting up to 90 pitches. The Dodgers got a pair of singles in the sixth, but Ryu failed to get down a bunt to advance them. Ryu had won his first five decisions on the road this season. When he faced the Reds on May 26 at Dodger Stadium, he took a perfect game into the eighth before settling for a 4-3 victory. He helped the Reds get ahead in the rematch. Ryu walked two batters ahead of Vottos two-out double in the second. Votto scored on Brandon Phillips single. Bruce homered in the sixth for a 4-0 lead.

WINNIPEG -- Coach Tim Burke had at least a few minutes to celebrate, before his Winnipeg Blue Bombers lost 38-33 to the Montreal Alouettes and spoiled what looked like a celebration to open Investors Group Field. "When we were up by nine, I was really enjoying it a lot," he said. The Alouettes regained their pose after surrendering a 14-0 lead they built early in the first quarter to come back in the fourth from that nine-point deficit Thursday. Demond Washingtons 80-yard punt return for a touchdown helped the Winnipeg Blue Bombers grab the lead in the third and electrify the sellout crowd of 33,500. But Montreal quarterback Anthony Calvillo, who was sacked four times but still completed 20-of-35 pass attempts, put the victory party on hold. He threw a 42-yard pass to S.J. Green in the end zone just over four minutes into the final quarter to close within two. A penalty brought the Alouettes into Winnipeg territory and Sean Whyte kicked a 35-yard field goal to make it 34-33. He hit another at 13:19 and capped the scoring on a punt single for the 38-33 final. New Montreal head coach Dan Hawkins said overall he was pleased with the game. "AC made plays, the receivers made plays, we were able to get some momentum back," said Hawkins, who took over this season after Marc Trestman left to coach the NFLs Chicago Bears. "Whytey kicked the heck out of the ball, did a great job answering there . . . I thought it was all good except for the punt return." Oft-injured Winnipeg quarterback Buck Pierce, who didnt see much pre-season action, was also sacked three times but moved the ball better in the second half. He hit 19 of his 32 pass attempts but allowed a couple of ill-timed interceptions in the opening half -- one leading to a touchdown. "I felt comfortable going into the game. That was just two errant throws where I miss a guy just to the outside and I throw a high ball to Terrence (Edwards) and its tipped," he said. "We fought out of it, we just didnt do enough down the stretch . . . When you cant get out of our own end zone in the fourth quarter thats tough. . . "It stings right now. Were up two possessions into the fourth and we let it get away." Burke said Winnipegs turnovers, five including one on downs, made the difference. "Until our team learns you have to secure the football, were just going to go through this every week," he said. But, overall, he too was pleased with a lot, particularly the maturity Burke said he saw in the second half. "I think we just settled down and played more relaxed." It didnt start well for Pierce. On his first throw of the game he was intercepted by Geoff Tisdale and then Chris Jennings ran the ball three yards for Montreals first touchdown.dddddddddddd Burke suggested he might have been a little too pumped up but Pierce insisted that wasnt the case. Tyrone Carrier then returned Mike Renauds 39-yard punt 77 yards for Montreals second touchdown at 4:50. Justin Palardy kicked the first of his three field goals and Winnipeg finally scored its first touchdown after Washington picked off a bouncing overthrow from Calvillo and ran it back 49 yards. Pierce connected with Chris Matthews to make it 14-10. Matthews, the CFLs outstanding rookie last season, was confirmed as a starter only Thursday morning. Winnipeg picked up a single on a Renaud punt into the end zone to start the second quarter but Pierce was intercepted again. Calvillo was sacked on the following drive and had to settle for a 36-yard field goal from Whyte to make it 17-11. A fumble on Winnipegs next play handed the ball back inside the Bombers 40 but again their defence held Montreal to a field goal. Whyte conceded a safety at 10:58 to bring the Bombers within a touchdown again but his short field goal made it 23-13 as the first half ended, with the Alouettes stalled once more at the goal-line. Pierce brought the Bombers within three at the start of the second half, thanks to a 65-yard reception from Jade Etienne and an eight-yard touchdown pass to Clarence Denmark. Then Washington brought the crowd to their feet with his 80-yard run and goal-line dive to put the Bombers ahead 27-23 near the four-minute mark. Palardy added a field goal a few minutes later to make it 30-23, Montreal picked up a single, and then Palardy kicked a 48-yarder before the end of the third quarter to make it 33-24. Then it was Calvillo to Green and Whytes coup de grace. Montreal stalled at Winnipegs goal-line several times but slotback Jamel Richardson said they are still learning their new offence. "It really wasnt them, it was us. weve got a new offence and we just need to continue to chuck away at it, right down the field, and . . . capitalize on it." This was the second game but the official opening for the new $200-million stadium on the campus of the University of Manitoba. The Bombers played their first exhibition game there June 12. As part of the celebration, an Olympic-style run ended Thursday evening at the stadium after 400 runners spent six days traversing a good chunk of southern Manitoba. Instead of a torch, they carried a football. The opener featured a Manitoba-born headliner as well. Tom Cochrane, a native of Lynn Lake, provided the half-time entertainment with his band Red Rider.
