Reds starter Johnny Cueto was knocked around and did not make it past the second inning of Thursday's Cactus League contest against the Athletics. Cueto, who made his fifth start of the spring, pitched a perfect first inning before running into trouble in the second. He allowed five runs, including a two-run home run to Derek Norris, before he was pulled for Nick Christiani in the second. He lasted just 1 2/3 innings as he gave up five hits, walked two and struck out one. Cueto has allowed 15 runs -- 13 earned -- in 16 2/3 innings of work this spring.
