 Brewers Lose to Reds, 7-1 

The 2011 season is off to a good start for the Cincinnati Reds. The hometown Reds knocked off the Milwaukee Brewers, 7-1, at Great American Ball Park. Cincinnati pitcher Johnny Cueto paced his team to the win. The win belongs to Bill Bray in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Zack Greinke took the loss for Milwaukee. Cincinnati took a 2-1 lead on Scott Rolen's 1st double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Rolen hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Milwaukee pitcher Zack Greinke shaking his head. "We'll enjoy this win," said Rolen. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
