GAME STORY | Lefty Austin Gomber served up three more home runs in a bitter 5-4 loss to the Reds on Monday night, the Rockies’ sixth consecutive defeat.
The Rockies had a chance to rally in the ninth when Mike Moustakas and Jurickson Profar delivered back-to-back singles off Reds closer Alex Diaz. But Diaz struck out Randal Grichuk and Ryan McMahon and got Elias Diaz to ground out to shortstop Spencer Steer for his 19th save.
The latest defeat came on a night when Great American Ballpark threw a welcome-home party for Cincy icon Joey Votto and as the red-hot Reds won their ninth consecutive game, the longest active winning streak in the majors and their longest since a 10-game winning streak from July 19-29, 2012. Votto made a curtain call after his home run and was serenaded with chants of “Joey! Joey!” after his clutch single.
