The Reds, who have won six of their last eight, are 22-14 since the All-Star break -- second-best in the National League -- and Straily is one of the reasons. Straily held the Rangers to three hits, walked two and struck out five. He is now 6-0 with a 1.98 ERA in eight starts since the break, and the Reds have won all eight.
Holland, making his first start since June 20, came off the disabled list and allowed just one run in six innings. He gave up four hits, walked one and struck out five on 73 pitches.
