Series at a glance:
Harang, Reds struggle
Aaron Harang had arguably his roughest start of the season, allowing six runs on 10 hits in 5 2/3 innings in losing only his fourth game. The Reds jumped out to a quick lead in the first on RBIs from Ken Griffey Jr. and Brandon Phillips, but Harang was unable to contain the Mets.
