Johnny Cueto was the victim of two home runs by the Chicago Cubs that accounted for all the scoring in the 3-0 loss.

Anthony Rizzo hit his 30th of the season with two outs and the bases empty in the first inning.  Arismendy Alcantara hit a two-run home run in the seventh to give the Cubs a 3-0 lead.

Former Red Travis Wood was shutting down the Reds in the meantime.  Todd Frazier hit a single in the first and Zack Cozart singled in the fifth.  Jay Bruce walked in the fourth.  All three were stranded by Wood, who left after six innings.

The game was stopped by rain four batters into the game, contributing to the early exits of both starters.

Neil Ramirez, Pedro Strop and Hector Rondon kept the Reds off the board over the last three innings.

The Reds put two runners on in the eighth against Strop but he got Frazier to ground out to end the mild threat.

Daniel Corcino struck out Wellignton Castillo, the first batter he ever faced, on his 24th birthday.
