Manchester United made a splash as the transfer window deadline closed in, signing Colombian striker Radamel Falcao to a season-long loan with the option to buy the player at the end of the season. According to BBC.com United paid French club Monaco six million pounds for Falcaos services for the remainder of the 2014-15 season. Falcao has scored 11 goals in 20 appearances in Ligue 1 since joining Monaco in May, 2013. The club paid Atletico Madrid a reported 50 million pounds for Falcaos services and signed the striker to a five-year deal. The 28-year-old has been nominated for the FIFA Ballon dOr in each of the past two seasons, finishing fifth in voting in 2012 and 11th in 2013. A severe knee injury cut his 2013-14 season short, limiting the striker to just 17 league games with Monaco. He would still score nine goals in those appearances. The injury would, however, force him out of the 2014 FIFA World Cup, delivering a blow to the chances of the highly-ranked Colombian squad. The team would still advance to the quarter-finals of the tournament behind the strong play of eventual Golden Boot-winner James Rodriguez. Falcao has appeared in 51 internationals for Colombia, scoring 20 career goals. Falcaos career began with Argentinean side River Plate in 2005. He would appear in 90 games with River over the next four seasons before Portuguese club Porto acquired his services for a fee of just under 4 million euros. The Colombian would dominate over parts of the next three seasons with Porto, scoring 41 goals in 51 league matches and 22 in 24 combined games between the UEFA Europa and Champions leagues, highlighted by helping the club win the 2010-11 Europa Championship. In the early stages of the 2011-12 season he would be transferred to Spanish side Atletico Madrid for a reported 40 million euros. His impact with Atletico would be immediate as he would guide Atletico to the 2012 Europa League Championship, leading the competition in scoring for a second straight season. The victory would earn Atletico its third ever berth in the Champions League. Falcao would score 52 goals in 68 league matches and 13 goals in 17 European appearances over parts of two seasons for Ateltico. In addition to the Europa title he would also help them to the 2012-13 Copa del Rey.

He wound up deciding the game. Penas second career pinch-homer started Cincinnatis big eighth-inning rally and swept the Reds over the Milwaukee Brewers 8-3 Thursday night. The Reds hit three homers in all as they pulled within 6 1/2 games of the NL Central leaders. Tucker Barnhart led off the fifth with his first career homer. Todd Frazier added a two-run drive in the sixth off Marco Estrada, who gave up six hits and four walks in six innings. Pena had homered during a 9-4 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday night. He batted for Bailey with the score tied at 3 in the eighth and connected on the first pitch from Jim Henderson (2-1) for a two-run homer. "I was just thinking about driving the ball and hitting it hard somewhere," Pena said. "He got a pitch up and I was able to take advantage of it. I wasnt expecting a homer, but Ill take it." Cincinnati sent 11 batters to the plate while scoring five times during the inning against a bullpen that entered the series with the fourth-best ERA in the league. It had one very bad inning. "Theyre going to happen, no doubt," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. "Weve been good down there. We just werent good tonight." Homer Bailey (2-2) allowed eight hits in a season-high eight innings, finally returning to form after missing much of spring training with a strained groin. "This game was good for all of us," Bailey said. "Were fixing to turn things around. Weve had a lot happen already this year. This one showed were starting to come together as a group." Milwaukee has lost back-to-back games for only the second time this season. The Brewers havent dropped more than two in a row. Cincinnati opened the four-game series with another injury. Leadoff hitter Billy Hamilton sprained knuckles on his left hand while making a diving catch in centre field and will miss a few games. Hamilton stretched all out to reach Carlos Gomezs line drive that opened the game. He grimaced and flexed his left hand and wrist as he gott up.dddddddddddd Chris Heisey hit for him in the bottom of the inning. Hamilton hurt the middle finger on his left hand while sliding into base during the opening week of the season and missed two games. "Unfortunately, its the same hand that he hurt in New York," manager Bryan Price said. "Were optimistic that hell only miss a day or two, but we wont know for a day or two." Gomez stole a hit from Joey Votto in the bottom of the first, catching his fly at the top of the wall in centre. Votto pointed two fingers toward Gomez, who also stole a potential go-ahead homer from him for the final out in Milwaukees 4-3 win last July 8. Jean Segura singled in a run in the second, and Gomez doubled home a pair of two-out runs to tie it 3-all in the seventh. Milwaukee got two players back in the lineup, but outfielder Ryan Braun missed his fifth game because of a strained oblique. Braun is expected back this weekend. Segura returned at shortstop after being out of the starting lineup for four games because of an injury to his face. Third baseman Aramis Ramirez was back after missing two games with a sore left elbow and went hitless, extending his slump to 0 for 25. Outfielder Logan Schafer is eligible to return from the disabled list on Saturday, recovered from a strained right hamstring. For now, Roenicke is using Mark Reynolds in right field, a position the infielder played during spring training.
