Dodgers beat up Bronson Arroyo, hold on to beat Reds again

CINCINNATI >> The shortest outing of Bronson Arroyo’s season might be the last of his career.

The 40-year-old veteran right-hander was roughed up for five runs and seven hits in just three innings on Sunday as the Dodgers built a seven-run lead before holding on for an 8-7 win over the Cincinnati Reds.

Arroyo (3-6), attempting a comeback this season with his former team after missing 2 1/2 seasons with arm and shoulder problems, including Tommy John surgery and a procedure on his shoulder, revealed after the game that he’d been receiving cortisone shots in his shoulder since spring training.
