CINCINNATI -- Michael Lorenzen could barely make it to the plate after recording the third out of his first inning following the death of his father.Once he got there, he made it count. The Cincinnati reliever hit a three-run homer to cap the Reds 9-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night.Even after the third out of my first inning, I needed to go back into the bathroom because I broke down, said Lorenzen, activated from the bereavement list before the game. There were some teammates who helped me out, and I was able to go out and hit.Joey Votto also hit a three-run homer as the Reds snapped a nine-game losing streak against the Dodgers.Tim Adleman pitched into and out of trouble in his first start since May 19 and added his first career hit and runs batted in as the Reds matched their season high with a fourth consecutive win and first against the Dodgers since Aug 13, 2015.Los Angeles hit four balls to the outfield wall, but three were caught for outs in Adlemans five scoreless innings.

He also hit Joc Pederson twice with pitches.The Dodgers were 0 for 8 with runners in scoring position against Adleman, leaving runners on third four times.Getting out of those situations had a lot to do with the defense, Adleman said..Bud Norris (6-10) gave up six runs and seven hits in 3 2/3 innings in his first start since July 31 due to a back strain. He struck out three and walked four while lasting fewer than five innings for the 10th time in 17 starts this season.The Reds wasted no time pouncing on Norris, who had trouble with the pitching mound while warming up for the first inning and needed some maintenance. The first five batters reached base, four with hits, including Vottos blast over the center field wall for his 20th home run of the season.A big piece of clay came out, Norris said about the mound issue. They came out and fixed it. It was always there, but its not really an excuse. It didnt go my way.The Reds sent nine batters to the plate while knocking Norris out in their three-run fourth. He walked Tucker Barnhart intentionally to get to Adleman with two outs and Eugenio Suarez on second. The pitcher crossed him up with a two-run double up the right-center field gap.Lorenzen hit his first career home run in the seventh. He had to be prodded by his teammates as the crowd of 28,184 pleaded for a curtain call.The Lorenzen home run was emotional for all of us, manager Bryan Price said.
