Jay Bruce drove in three runs, and Brandon Phillips and Jerry Hairston Jr. drove in two apiece as the Reds scored early and often off Andrew Miller and a succession of Marlin relievers, and coasted to an 11-3 win.  Ex-Reds Jorge Cantu (two homers and a double) and Cody Ross (also with two hits) provided most of the Marlins offense.  Reds rookie right-hander Johnny Cueto evened his record at 5-5 with a quality start.
