Reds end Dodgers' 6-game win streak

THE Los Angeles Dodgers' six-game winning streak was ended and its lead in the American League West division cut to the minimum as they lost 5-2 to the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday.

Mat Latos gave up only one run in 7 2-3 innings while Cincinnati got home runs from Jay Bruce and Xavier Paul.

In other key games, St Louis pitcher Lance Lynn was in commanding form to set up a win over Philadelphia and New York's Hiroki Kuroda also dominated from the mound to pitch the Yankees past Texas 2-0.

Washington arrested a six-game losing sequence by defeating Pittsburgh 9-7, the Los Angeles Angels high-powered batting lineup clicked in a 8-3 win over Oakland and Kansas City dealt another blow to Baltimore's AL East division ambitions with a 7-1 thrashing.

Cincinnati starter Latos (10-3) belatedly notched his first victory at Dodger Stadium after losing all five of his previous starts there.

Latos is 24-7 in 54 starts since Cincinnati acquired him from San Diego.

St Louis' Lance Lynn allowed one run in seven innings to steer the Cardinals to a 3-1 win over Philadelphia.

In other games, it was: Mariners 8, Twins 2; White Sox 7, Tigers 4; Marlins 5, Rockies 3; Blue Jays 4, Astros 0; and Diamondbacks 3, Cubs 1.
