Something about playing the Cincinnati Reds brings out the best in Ryan Braun.
The Milwaukee Brewers outfielder launched two home runs including his fourth career grand slam in an 8-3 victory over the Reds on Wednesday afternoon.
Braun's slam was part of a five-run eighth inning for the Brew Crew to put the game away.

All four of Braun's homers this year have come off Reds pitchers.
The win snaps a two-game slide for Milwaukee, who entered the contest as losers in 12 of its last 14 games.
