CHICAGO -- Brandon Phillips and Homer Bailey were all the Cincinnati Reds needed to recover from a tough weekend. Adidas Schuhe Grosshandel Deutschland . Phillips hit a grand slam and matched his career high with six RBIs and Bailey pitched eight strong innings, and the Reds extended their dominance over the Chicago Cubs with a 6-2 win Monday night in foggy conditions at Wrigley Field. Across town, the Chicago White Sox and Toronto Blue Jays were delayed over an hour because of dense fog but the Cubs and Reds were never halted. The Reds were in a hurry to rebound from a weekend series loss to NL Central-leading St. Louis. The Cardinals had lost four of five overall. "We were embarrassed over the weekend, personally and as an organization and as a team," manager Dusty Baker said. "Well get them again many, many times." The Reds dont play St. Louis again until Aug. 2-4, and before then will have to be content with beating the Cubs, something they do regularly. Cincinnati has won 10 straight at Wrigley Field, eight of 10 over the overall this season, and 17 of the teams last 20 matchups. On Monday, all the Reds runs were driven in by Phillips, who had an RBI single in the first, connected off Scott Feldman (5-5) in the third and an RBI groundout in the eighth for his fourth-career game of six RBIs. Phillips had been 2 for his last 12 but hit his 152nd home run as a Reds second baseman, tying Joe Morgan for the most by a second baseman in team history. His six RBIs gave him 615, surpassing Morgans 612 for the most as a Cincinnati second baseman. "It just means Ive been over here too long to do that because Joe Morgan is the best second baseman to play this game," Phillips said. "For me to be in the same category as him, its an honour." Bailey (4-4) didnt make any history, but he gave Cincinnati exactly what it needed and picked up his first win since May 25 against the Cubs. He gave up one unearned run and four hits while striking out eight to improve to 7-2 against Chicago, which fell to 7-19 in the NL Central. Bailey threw 120 pitches, his second most of the season and third 100-plus pitch start of the season, sparing a bullpen that worked four innings in Sundays 11-4, 10-inning loss to the Cardinals. Going deep into the game and trying to save the bullpen wasnt on Baileys mind, however. "If you do that youre not going to make it out of the fourth," Bailey said. "I just wanted to be aggressive and try to be very efficient." Feldmans night wasnt as good. He pitched six innings and allowed five runs and seven hits to lose his first decision since May 24 at Cincinnati, the other time hes allowed five earned runs this season. Unfortunately for Feldman, the Reds did not have trouble in the fog. The Cubs lost for the sixth time in eight games since a five-game winning streak. "I was hoping it would make it harder for them to pick up the ball," Feldman said. "Apparently it didnt work." Baker said he lost track of Luis Valbuenas fly ball to left during the bottom of the first that was caught by Xavier Paul, and he and Cubs manager Dale Sveum had doubts whether the game would continue. "Obviously it couldnt get any worse otherwise youd have to stop it," Sveum said "It was borderline as it was." There was no doubt about how much Cincinnati needed to win Monday after a tough weekend against a team Phillips called the best in baseball. "For us to come out and play the way we did today, its awesome," Phillips said. "We bounced back from a loss, a tough loss we had at home. We just came here and got key hits in key situations, and got a win. NOTES: The Reds announced before Mondays game they will call up LHP Tony Cingrani to start Tuesday.
