A day after snapping an 11-game losing streak, the Reds lost behind starter Brandon Finnegan. The left-hander pitched into the seventh inning and allowed four runs on six hits and four walks.
Blaine Boyer surrendered his first run in 12 appearances, but he struck out Jordan Pacheco to earn his fourth career save.
MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Take what you can: Villar's trademark aggressive baserunning helped produce the first run of the game on Sunday afternoon. In the first inning, Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips made a running catch of a Perez popup in foul territory, but went to the ground after banging his knee against the padding on the wall.
