Ramirez homers, but Dodgers lose
CINCINNATI - Micah Owings' pitching is finally catching up to his bat.
The Cincinnati righthander homered and pitched into the seventh inning to help the Reds beat St. Louis.
"I just feel like I'm taking the same approach every game," Owings said. "I come in here, get ready between starts, and focus on each pitch - and I know the guys behind me will help."
