How the game was won: The Reds scored a run in the first inning and added homers by Marlon Byrd in the second inning and a two-run shot by Todd Frazier in the third to beat the Braves 5-1. Cuban rookie Raisel Iglesias, in his second major league game and start, limited the Braves to two hits, one run and three walks in eight innings.
Number: 6. Home runs allowed by Eric Stults in his past three starts, all losses. He's given up two homers in each of those games, and was charged with six hits, five runs and one walk with three strikeouts in five innings Wednesday.
What's next: The Braves, who fell to 1-5 on their nine-game trip, are off Thursday before opening a three-game series against the Marlins Friday night at Marlins Park. Julio Teheran (3-1, 4.74 ERA) faces Marlins right-hander David Phelps (2-0, 2.90).
