SOMETIMES IT'S funny the way losing streaks are broken.
Tuesday night was certainly that, unless you're a member of the Cincinnati faithful.
The weather was abnormal for this time of year. It was cold, wet and blustery. It felt more April than June.
And the way the Phillies won was equally weird.
The Phillies tallied three runs against the Reds that they probably shouldn't have in helping to snap a seasonlong, seven-game losing streak, winning, 5-4, in front of an announced crowd of 20,209.
Darin Ruf provided the game's walkoff RBI, a bloop single to rightfield after Carlos Ruiz sacrificed bunted Odubel Herrera to third base.
