Bullpen troubles loom large as Cincinnati Reds swept at home by Arizona Diamondbacks

When the Cincinnati Reds ended their last homestand, they were sky-high with a five-game winning streak and a spot atop the National League Central standings.

Now, they have nowhere to look but up.

The Reds bashed six homers and erased a four-run deficit to send the game into extra innings, but it still wasn't enough in a 14-11 loss in 10 innings Wednesday. The Reds, on a four-game losing streak, were swept in their three-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

It was the first time the D-Backs swept a series at Great American Ball Park since Aug.
