CHICAGO – It's no secret that Reds starting pitcher Luis Castillo loves to throw his changeup. It's his best pitch and it usually makes hitters look foolish.

Not Saturday.

Castillo didn't think he made bad pitches with his changeup but two of them flew over the fence in his second-shortest outing of the season.

On a sunny Saturday in Chicago, it was an ugly, ugly afternoon for the Reds in a 10-6 loss at Wrigley Field in front of 41,205.
