(Reuters) - The Cincinnati Reds saw their 10-game winning streak come to an end at the hands of former team mates as the San Diego Padres took down baseball's hottest team 11-5 Monday.

Yonder Alonso recorded four hits while pitcher Edinson Volquez was shaky over five innings but got the win, both players helping to slow their old team after being traded from the Reds in the same off-season deal.

Cincinnati (61-41), has charged up baseball's standings with a red-hot stretch. The team was looking for their first 11-game win streak since 1957, but saw their hopes battered early.

Despite taking a 3-0 lead in the first inning, the visiting Padres (44-60) burst ahead with five runs in the second and four more in the third.

Reds starter Mike Leake lasted just 1 2/3 innings but San Diego still tacked on the scoring late, getting four RBIs from Will Venable and three from Carlos Quentin.
