Reds 4, Pirates 0
CINCINNATI — Johnny Cueto pitched his third career shutout against the team that beat him in the NL wild-card game, and Joey Votto hit a two-run homer that led the Reds to their first winning series this season. Cueto had his way with the lineup that beat him 6-2 at PNC Park in the playoffs, striking out a career-high 12 during his first shutout since 2011. Any extra satisfaction? "I never think too much about those things," Cueto said, with assistant trainer Tomas Vera interpreting. "That was 2013."
