By JERRY BEACH Associated Press

NEW YORK (AP) — Joey Votto homered for the seventh straight game, one shy of a major league record, and the Reds beat the New York Mets 6-2.

Jonathan India went deep twice for the Reds, including a leadoff shot that came on Carlos Carrasco’s first pitch with the Mets.

Acquired from Cleveland in January, the veteran right-hander finally made his New York debut after recovering from a hamstring injury.
