"Relief pitchers learn to have short memories, and that is what Edward Mujica was employing Sunday, a day after giving up three runs on four hits in the eighth inning and allowed the Reds to tie the game. Cincinnati would go on to win it 4-3 in the 10th.

"One of those bad days," Mujica said. "Today is a different day. Like a book, you have to turn the page."

Mujica, who had allowed a total of 4 runs in 11 appearances prior to Saturday, came in with two outs in the innning, but failed to record an out before he was replaced, and his ERA jumped from 3.48 to 6.10.

No reward: The victim of Saturday's bullpen implosion was Josh Johnson, who for the second straight start left the game with a lead that the relievers could not hold."
