Washington's Stephen Strasburg left after only 16 pitches, and Zack Cozart had three hits as the Cincinnati Reds rallied against the Nationals' bullpen for a 5-2 victory on Friday night. The Reds took advantage of Strasburg's quick exit to win for only the second time in 12 games. Strasburg gave up a solo homer in the first inning by Joey Votto -his first since April 28 - and walked Brayan Pena on his 16th pitch to open the second inning.
