CINCINNATI (AP) — Hunter Greene allowed one hit six innings in his first start in 11 days, Joey Votto homered on his 40th birthday and the Cincinnati Reds stopped a three-game losing streak with a 7-1 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday. Votto homered in the eighth during his first game back after missing 16 with discomfort in his surgically repaired right shoulder. Jonathan India, Will Benson and TJ Friedl also hit solo home runs as Cincinnati avoided a three-game sweep. The Reds (74-71) entered the game fifth in the wild-card standings, 2 1/2 games behind Arizona for the third slot.
