Dodgers overpower Reds to snap losing streak

The Dodgers built an early lead and held on to beat the Reds 5-1 on Tuesday night in Cincinnati, snapping a season-worst five-game losing streak for Los Angeles.

Jimmy Rollins and Yasiel Puig opened the first inning with back-to-back doubles for a quick 1-0 lead against John Lamb.

Adrian Gonzalez added a double in the third inning, followed by a two-run shot by Justin Turner to left field, a fly ball that just kept carrying into the seats for a 3-0 advantage.

Lamb was laboring all night.
