BRANDON Phillips hit a grand slam and matched his career high with six RBIs, helping the Cincinnati Reds extend their dominance over the Chicago Cubs with a 6-2 win Monday night in foggy conditions at Wrigley Field in Chicago.
Phillips had an RBI single in the first, connected off Scott Feldman (5-5) in the third and an RBI groundout in the eighth for his fourth-career game of six RBIs.
Cincinnati has won 10 straight at Wrigley Field, eight of 10 over the Cubs overall this season, and 17 of the teams' last 20 matchups.
Cincinnati (38-26) moved to within 3 1/2 games of first-place St Louis in the NL Central.
Elsewhere in the National League, Willie Bloomquist put Arizona ahead with a two-run infield single off Los Angeles closer Brandon League in a four-run ninth inning as the Diamondbacks edged the Dodgers 5-4,
The Brewers beat the Marlins 6-1 at Miami and the Padres pipped the Braves 7-6 with Logan Forsythe returning from injury to hit a homer in his first at-bat of the season, Will Venable adding a three-run shot and Jason Marquis winning his seventh straight decision.
The American League-leading Boston Red Sox finally beat the Rays 10-8 when Daniel Nava hit a tiebreaking single in the 14th inning in a game that included a bench-clearing scrum.
Red Sox starter John Lackey hit Matt Joyce in the back with a pitch in the sixth inning. Joyce, who homered earlier, shouted at the pitcher but was restrained by Boston catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia as players from both teams emptied the dugouts.
There was pushing and shoving along the first base line, but the umpires did not eject anyone.
Shane Victorino opened the 14th with a single off Cesar Ramos (1-2), then tagged up and hustled to second when Dustin Pedroia flied out to right field. David Ortiz was intentionally walked before Nava singled to put the Red Sox ahead.
At Arlington, Lance Berkman hit a tiebreaking, two-run homer in the seventh inning as the West Division leading Rangers beat Cleveland 6-3.
In other AL games, the Royals edged the Tigers 3-2 at Kansas City for their sixth consecutive win, the Orioles had a 4-3 win over the Angels, the Mariners beat the Astros 3-2, and the Chicago White Sox defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 10-6.
