Reed picks up the slack in Stephenson`s wake
(MLB.com Cincinnati Reds)

Cincinnati used a three-run first inning to jump out to an early lead over the Indians but didn`t score afterward in Wednesday`s loss at Great American Ball Park. Cody Reed threw 3 2/3 strong innings upon relieving starter Robert Stephenson after just 1 2/3 frames, and Tucker Barnhart hit his fifth home run of the season in the defeat.
