CINCINNATI, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- Drew Stubbs drove in four runs Thursday, two of them with his 22nd homer, and the NL Central Division champion Cincinnati Reds rolled to a 9-1 win over Houston.

The Reds produced 14 hits and drove Houston starter Brett Myers from the mound after 5 2/3 innings in his final appearance of the year.

Myers (14-8) had pitched at least six innings in all of his previous 32 starts this season. He gave up eight runs on 10 hits with four walks and seven strikeouts.

Stubbs hit his home run in the second inning and added a two-run single as part of Cincinnati's three-run fifth.

Brandon Phillips added a two-run homer in the sixth and Jonny Gomes had a solo shot later in the inning. Both players have 18 home runs.

Bronson Arroyo (17-10) allowed a run on four hits in seven innings to get the victory.
