Reds' Aquino hits 3 HRs, has 7 in 1st 10 games

CINCINNATI -- Reds rookie Aristides Aquino continued his remarkable run to open his career, homering in his first three at-bats Saturday to tie Trevor Story for most home runs, seven, in a player's first 10 games.

Aquino took Chicago Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks deep in the second and third innings, then hit a 452-foot blast off reliever Dillon Maples in the fourth. He became the 12th player in major league history to homer in three consecutive innings.

Aquino has homered five times in the first three games of the series against the Cubs.
