Aquino homers, but the Reds drop second straight game to start crucial week

Aristides Aquino got the Reds on the board in the second inning when he launched a two run home run into the left-field stands.

Sonny Gray gave the Reds five strong innings, but Heath Hembree and Amir Garrett walked third batters in the 6th inning, including with the bases loaded to give the Braves a 3-2 lead.

The Reds offense struggled once again against a left-handed starting pitcher. The Reds only had four total hits on the night. The Reds did put the go-ahead run on base in the 9th, but Mike Moustakas grounded into a double play to end the game.
