The Milwaukee Brewers blew a 5-0 lead and fell to the Cincinnati Reds 7-6 at Miller Park on Sunday afternoon.
Pinch-hitter Javier Valentin hit a bases-loaded, 2-run double off of Scott Linebrink in the 8th to lead the Cincinnati Reds to the win.
Chris Capuano's bad luck continued, although he didn't get saddled with the loss. But Capuano did cough up the early lead and the Brewers dropped to 0-16 in games that were started by Capuano.
Prince Fielder clubbed his league leading 38th home run of the season. Ryan Braun, Bill Hall and J.J. Hardy also homered in the loss. The Brewers have now dropped 6 of 7 and 10 of the last 13 games.
The Brewers begin a crucial 9-game road trip in Arizona against the Diamondbacks tonight.
