The center fielder ran it down and made a diving catch on the warning track, providing the only break that the pitcher needed.Straily extended his surge since the All-Star break by pitching six innings and Joey Votto drove in a pair of runs to lead the Cincinnati Reds over the Texas Rangers 3-0 on Tuesday night.A day after losing to the Dodgers 18-9, the Reds won a close one against a Rangers team that has been shut out three times in its last nine games.Straily (10-6) hasnt allowed more than two runs in any of his eight starts since the break, going 6-0. He gave up three singles and two walks. He also got a huge assist from Hamilton, who ran down Carlos Beltrans fly to left-center field to open the sixth with the game scoreless.I usually have a pretty good angle on most of them, and that was the first one all year I thought he had no shot, Straily said. I was starting to move over to back up third, but he found a way. Its pretty amazing what hes doing out there.The remarkable catch was a potential game-changer.It was just a spectacular play, manager Bryan Price said. What a difference he makes in center field. If he doesnt win a Gold Glove, theres no justice.Raisel Iglesias gave up two hits in the seventh but escaped the threat with two strikeouts. Tony Cingrani gave up two walks in the ninth before retiring Ryan Rua on a grounder to complete his 16th save in 21 chances.Votto singled home a run in the sixth off left-hander Derek Holland (5-6), who had been on the disabled list since June 22 with an inflamed pitching shoulder. Holland gave up four hits and a walk in six innings. He also got his first major league hit, a single off the plate that bounced over Vottos head at first base.Holland grew up in Newark, Ohio, and had been unbeaten in his home state, going 3-0 in games in Cleveland. He would have loved to get another one at the other end of the state.That would have been very nice, he said. I left quite a lot of tickets. It was definitely good to be back in Ohio in front of family and friends.Hollands only walk set up the run. He walked Tyler Holt -- who pitched a perfect relief inning during Mondays lopsided loss -- to open the sixth. Holt advanced on Hamiltons sacrifice bunt and came around on Vottos single to right.Tyler Barnhart doubled home a run in the seventh off Jeremy Jeffress. Votto added a sacrifice fly in the eighth off Matt Bush.STILL HITLESSStraily grounded out in his only at-bat, leaving him 0 for 43 in his career.
