CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Jay Bruce homered again for a first-game win. Joe Thomas Jersey . Billy Hamilton finished off Cincinnatis biggest comeback of the season for a doubleheader sweep. Finally, the Reds sense they are making headway. Bruces homer sent Cincinnati to a 4-2 win in the opener on Tuesday, and Hamiltons ninth-inning single gave the Reds a 6-5 victory and a sweep of the last-place Chicago Cubs. With three wins in two days over Chicago, the Reds moved within 3 1/2 games of first-place Milwaukee in the NL Central, their smallest deficit since April 9. "It just unifies all of us," manager Bryan Price said. "We just feel really good right now." So good that some of them wanted to keep going at the end of a very long day. "Lets play three!" Hamilton said. "Im ready to go right now." The Reds fell behind 5-0 in the third inning of the nightcap. Their biggest comeback of the season had been two runs. They took advantage of a struggling team, sending Chicago to its fifth straight loss. Bruce doubled home the tying run in the eighth. Hamilton then had a broken-bat RBI single in the ninth off Hector Rondon (1-3) for the Reds first doubleheader sweep since 2009 against Pittsburgh. Hamilton has driven in six runs during the series, relishing the clutch situations. "I love em," Hamilton said. "I want to be the guy in a situation like that." The Cubs have been swept in all three of their doubleheaders this season. They havent won a game since trading starters Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel to Oakland for a package of prospects. In the opener, Bruce returned to right field and hit another two-run homer, connecting off Travis Wood (7-7) during a three-run first inning. Johnny Cueto (9-6) extended his stretch of success against the Cubs. He is 5-0 in his last seven starts against Chicago with a 1.19 ERA. Chris Coghlan homered in both games and helped the Cubs get in position for a split, but Chicagos bullpen couldnt hold on. Coghlan hit the first of three homers off left-hander David Holmberg, who lasted only 2 2-3 innings in his Reds debut. Coghlan is 7 for 12 in the series with two homers and two doubles. Left-hander Tsuyoshi Wada made his major league debut and gave up an unearned run in five innings, leaving with a 5-1 lead. Hamiltons RBI triple cut it to 5-4 in the seventh, and Bruce -- playing first base in the nightcap -- had another pivotal extra-base hit against Pedro Strop. Rondon gave up a pair of singles to open the ninth, and Hamilton singled to the opposite field for the win. The Reds put first baseman Joey Votto back on the disabled list before Game 1, hoping a strained muscle above his left knee will heal enough to let him play this season. Theyre using different players -- including Bruce -- at the position for now. "The only thing you can see thats positive out of this is its creating opportunities for other guys to play and theyre taking advantage of it," Price said. Bruce played right field in the first game and connected in the first inning off Wood. That made three straight games in which the left-handed hitter had a two-run homer off a lefty. Bruce has 50 homers off lefties during the last five seasons, the most by any player in the majors. Cueto gave up six hits in 6 1-3 innings, including back-to-back homers in the sixth by Coghlan and Ryan Sweeney. Manny Parra pitched out of a one-out, bases-loaded threat in the seventh. Aroldis Chapman gave up a hit and a walk in the ninth while getting his 18th save in 20 chances. NOTES: The opening game made up an April 28 postponement. ...

He hopes it spills over into next year. Hamilton hit a tying two-run homer in the ninth inning then put the Angels ahead with a sacrifice fly in the 11th, leading Los Angeles over the Oakland Athletics 5-4 Wednesday. "I feel like I am having good at-bats even if the results arent always there," Hamilton said. "If I can build off this last month of quality at-bats, it would be good." Hamilton connected against Grant Balfour, who blew his third save of the season. Jesse Chavez (2-4) was the loser. Mike Trout connected for a two-run home run for the Angels, who won for the fourth time in five games. "No matter how long youve been playing, youre going to have confidence issues," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said of Hamilton. "Were seeing it all come together the last month. Hes a terrific player who has struggled at times earlier in the season." Coco Crisp and Yoenis Cespedes each hit two-run home runs for the As, who lost for the third time in 12 games. But they have a six-game lead over Texas in the AL West. The Rangers play at Tampa Bay. Juan Gutierrez (1-4) pitched the 10th for the win. Ernesto Frieri worked the 11th for his 35th save in 39 chances. As starter A.J. Griffin gave up Trouts homer with one out in the first. He retired 17 of the last 18 batters he faced. "Hes good at baseball," Griffin said of Trout. "I was trying to get him to miss hit, but he got it." Griffin allowed two runs on one hit. He walked two and struck out six. "Im able to repeat my delivery more often," Griffin said. "I can get the ball and let it fly." Angels starter Jason Vargas allowed four runs on seven hits over six innings. He walked two and struck out five. "I felt good most of the day," Vargas said. "I left a changeup and fastball up to some guys who have hit a few long balls." J.B.

After Trout flew out, Hamilton followed with a towering drive to the warning track in left field against Jerry Blevins that put the Angels ahead 5-4. "I wasnt trying to do too much except get it to the outfield," Hamilton said. Following Jed Lowries single leading off the fifth, the As were held to one hit the rest of the way. Griffin, who gave up his major league-leading 35th homer, faced three over the minimum. He walked leadoff hitter Shuck and got Aybar to fly out to centre ahead of Trouts 26th home run. The only other baserunner was Mark Trumbo, who walked with two outs in the fourth. Vargas hit Donaldson, who delivered the winning hit Tuesday night, sparking a warning to both teams from home plate umpire Jerry Meals. Donaldson waved it off. "Trout got hit pretty good last night," he said. "He might not have been throwing at me. Watching tape it looks like he comes inside to set up other pitches." Josh Reddick led off the third with a single. One out later, Crisp tied the score with a drive over the left field wall. Donaldson flew out but Lowrie followed with a single ahead of Cespedes 24th home run. NOTES: Trout homered in all three games of the series, the first time hes hit a homer in three straight. ...
