MLB: Cincinnati 7, Arizona 4

CINCINNATI, April 21 (UPI) -- Mike Leake allowed four hits over seven innings Thursday in helping the Cincinnati Reds to a 7-4 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Leake (3-0) allowed single runs in the first, second and fifth innings, the last coming on the third home run of the season by Kelly Johnson. Leake walked two and struck out six.

After Stephen Drew's RBI single gave Arizona a 1-0 lead in the first, the Reds answered with a four-run rally fueled by a hit batter and three walks -- two that forced in runs -- and a two-run single by Miguel Cairo off Arizona starter Daniel Hudson (0-4).

The Reds added three runs against Hudson before chasing him in the sixth inning. Jonny Gomes had a solo home run in the fifth for Cincinnati and Ramon Hernandez doubled in one run and scored the other in the sixth for a 7-3 lead.

Hudson got a run home for Arizona in the second with a nice bunt and Johnson's home run in the fifth made the score 4-3. The Diamondbacks' final run came on a ninth-inning home run by Drew. It was his first home run of the year.
