CINCINNATI, Ohio -- The bullpen was depleted. The Reds offence was thread-bare. Mike Leake took care of both problems. Leake pitched into the eighth inning and singled home a run -- a rare commodity for the Reds these days -- leading Cincinnati to a 3-0 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday night. "Fantastic job," third baseman Todd Frazier said. "We needed it." The Reds won for only the second time in 11 games since the All-Star break. The offence has been the biggest problem, scoring only 20 runs -- by far the fewest in the majors over that span. Leake (8-9) pitched in that way, too. His single off the glove of diving third baseman Martin Prado drove in a run in the second off Trevor Cahill (1-8), who has yet to win as a starter this season. Frazier and Brayan Pena also had RBI singles off Cahill, who fell to 0-6 in seven starts this season. A Reds lineup already missing first baseman Joey Votto and second baseman Brandon Phillips -- both on the disabled list -- also was without right fielder Jay Bruce, who went on bereavement leave for his grandfathers death. Both teams wasted chances during Arizonas 2-1, 15-inning victory in the series opener on Monday, which depleted the bullpens. Leake gave Cincinnatis relievers a chance to recover by giving up five hits in 7 2-3 innings. "He was just sharp," manager Bryan Price said. "He was on the attack. Theres a certain element to him -- a competitiveness, a fierceness to the kid -- that makes him better than his stuff, and hes got good stuff." With his sinker working well, Leake got 18 outs off grounders or strikeouts. "I try to keep the ball in the infield," Leake said. "I like using the infield more than the outfield." "That ball was moving more than normal," Arizona catcher Miguel Montero said. "His sinker was working." Aroldis Chapman pitched the ninth for his 23rd save in 25 chances. He extended his streak of at least one strikeout in 45 consecutive appearances, a major league record for a reliever. ON DECK Diamondbacks: Kirk Gibson needs one more win to tie Bob Melvin (337) for most by a Diamondbacks manager. ... Left-hander Wade Miley (6-7) starts the final game of the series before Arizona returns home to face Pittsburgh. Miley is 3-1 with a 2.94 ERA in his last five starts. Reds: Right-hander Alfredo Simon (12-5) tries for his first win since being chosen for his first All-Star team. In two starts since then, hes 0-2 and has given up seven runs -- five earned -- in 9 1-3 innings. ... The Reds start a series in Miami on Thursday. TRAINERS ROOM Diamondbacks: Second baseman Aaron Hill was back in the starting lineup after being limited to one pinch-hitting appearance in the last two games because of a bruised right hand. ... Right-hander Bo Schultz was called up from Triple-A Reno to restock a bullpen depleted by two extra-inning games in the last three. Outfielder Alfredo Marte was optioned. Reds: Right-hander Logan Ondrusek resumed throwing. Hes been on the 15-day disabled list since July 22 with a sore pitching shoulder. ... Price said left-hander Manny Parra hasnt pitched since July 20 because hes had a stiff back. ... Reliever Curtis Partch was called up from Triple-A Louisville to take Bruces spot while hes on bereavement leave. HURTS TO WATCH Diamondbacks All-Star catcher Miguel Montero would rather try to hit Chapmans fastball than catch it. He watched Reds All-Star catcher Devin Mesoraco catch fastballs clocked at 104 mph and 103 mph during Arizonas 2-1, 15-inning win on Monday and decided he wanted no part of that. "You see the reaction from Mesoraco," Montero said. "Every time he catches the ball its like, Oh, pain!" STATS Arizona has lost six of its last eight against Cincinnati. ... Didi Gregorius has four triples, a career high. ... Arizonas bullpen hasnt allowed a run in the last 18 2-3 innings. ... The Reds three runs matched their highest total in 11 games since the All-Star break. ... Billy Hamilton of the Reds opened the first with a double that snapped his career-worst slump at 0 for 15. Zack Cozart had an infield single -- he was orginally out at first but the call was overturned on appeal -- that ended his 0-for-22 slump, which matched his career worst. ... Leake has 63 career hits, the most by a pitcher in the majors since 2010. PJ Tucker Jersey . Nick Young scored 17 points for Los Angeles, which lost five of its last seven before trouncing the Pelicans, who beat them handily last week in New Orleans. Jodie Meeks and Xavier Henry scored 15 points apiece for the Lakers, who led by 20 points in the first half before coasting to their 12th win in their last 13 regular-season meetings with New Orleans. Robert Horry Jersey .Y. -- Syracuse guard Trevor Cooney was mired in a shooting slump, and his woes coincided with a late-season swoon by the Orange. http://www.therocketsofficial.com/Authe ... ts-Jersey/. In taking its goal tally to 99 in all competitions already this season, City delivered another demonstration of its lethal firepower at Etihad Stadium to set up a fourth-round match at home to another second-tier team -- Watford. Custom Houston Rockets Jerseys . Portland won Game 4 Sunday night at the Moda Center and are now up 3-1. The last time the Blazers won a playoff series came in the 2000 Western Conference semifinals against the Utah Jazz. Clint Capela Jersey . -- Arizona came out of its last meeting with California a bit discombobulated, hurting from its first loss and the loss of forward Brandon Ashley for the rest of the season.SAN ANTONIO -- Kawhi Leonard could have been devastated by losing last seasons NBA Finals. Instead, he vowed to get better. Just think -- the San Antonio Spurs youngest star is only getting started. Hes a champion now, with the Spurs beating the Miami Heat 104-87 on Sunday night in Game 5 of the NBA Finals, finishing off a 4-1 triumph. And after watching the Heat celebrate last season, Leonard was the pick as MVP of the series, accepting his award from 11-time champion Bill Russell. "Everybody is just living in the moment right now," Leonard said. "Really dont know whats going on." Hell figure it out quick. After all, the Spurs know titles -- this one being their fifth since 1999. When Commissioner Adam Silver announced Leonard as the MVP, he was mobbed by his teammates and Spurs coach Gregg Popovich roared with laughter, knowing Leonard would have to do what he hates most -- talk about himself. "Right now, its just surreal to me," Leonard said. "I have a great group of guys behind me." Leonard had 22 points and 10 rebounds, his third straight big game in the series. He fouled out in the fourth quarter, which was barely noticed after the job he did helping keep LeBron James in some sort of check over the final three quarters. When it was over -- actually, a few seconds before it was over -- James led a group of Heat players down to the Spurs bench foor the first round of congratulatory hugs.dddddddddddd The first one he gave, and rightly so, was to Leonard. It was James taking the trophy from Russell in each of the last two seasons, after Miamis titles. This time, the night belonged to Leonard, a 22-year-old who the Spurs have long thought was the heir apparent to the Big 3 of Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker. "The first two games, he didnt play so well," James said about Leonard. "I thought he attacked more in the last three games, shot the ball extremely well." Added Heat guard Dwyane Wade: "Its like he just played free. ... Hes the future of this team." The Big 3 in San Antonio is still championship-good. But their key guy now might be Leonard, who just took over this series. "Hes a great learner and hes super competitive, has a drive to be the best thats really uncommon in our league," Popovich said. "He walks the walk. I mean, hes there early, hes there late. He wants more. He wants me and the coaches to push him. So I just talked to him about not being in that defer sort of stage. The hell with Tony, the hell with Timmy, the hell with Manu, you play the game. You are the man." In this series, he absolutely was. Leonard averaged 17.8 points on 61 per cent shooting. And he became the youngest Finals MVP since Duncan won it for the Spurs in 1999.
