Scott Van Slyke led off the fourth with a home run, and the Dodgers added two-run shots by A.J. Ellis and Yasiel Puig. In two starts against the Dodgers, Holmberg has allowed 13 runs and six homers, two by Puig.
Dodgers winning starter Brett Anderson (8-8) retired 11 consecutive batters at one point and had a two-hit shutout through six innings, but he was charged with three unearned runs after second baseman Chase Utley's error in the seventh. Anderson has beaten the Reds for his last two victories, taking this rematch of an 8-3 win over Holmberg in Los Angeles on Aug.
