Reds hit 7 HRs in 13-1 win over Padres

Aug 14, 2011 - 3:05 AM Cincinnati, OH (Sports Network) - Cincinnati Reds hitters combined for seven home runs to rout the Padres, 13-1, in the middle game of a three-game series at Great American Ball Park.

Miguel Cairo and Ryan Hanigan hit two homers apiece and drove in nine runs between them, while Joey Votto, Jay Bruce and Todd Frazier also added longballs.

Homer Bailey (7-5) earned the win after giving up one run and scattering six hits over seven innings.

"At this time of year I always feel like I have better stuff," said Bailey. "Our defense did great and the bats put up 11 runs so it made my job a lot easier."

Kyle Blanks accounted for the lone Padres run with a solo homer in the fourth.

Tim Stauffer (7-9) was pegged with the loss after giving up nine runs on seven hits -- including five home runs -- in just three innings.

The Reds jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the first. Votto belted his 19th homer of the season before Bruce walked and scored when Cairo blasted 1-1 fastball into the left field stands.

Cincinnati added another run in the second when Frazier hit a solo homer to open the frame, giving the Reds a 4-0 lead.

The Reds kept pouring it on in the third, adding five more runs to take a 9-0 lead. Votto singled and scored on Bruce's 25th homer of the season. Stubbs followed with a single and Frazier walked before Hanigan drove a 2-1 fastball over the wall in left for a three-run blast.

The Padres finally got on the board in the fourth after Blanks hit a leadoff homer to left.

But Cincinnati continued its home run assault. Bruce opened the fifth with a single before Cairo belted his second longball of the game and seventh of the season.

In the eighth, Stubbs doubled to open the frame before Hanigan hit his second homer of the night, and fifth of the season, to give the Reds their 13-1 lead.
