He went on to have a disappointing 2011 season, going 9-12 with a 5.07 ERA as he suffered from mononucleosis in late March. Arroyo led the majors that season in home runs allowed, with 46. He did better in 2012, going 12-10 with a 3.74 ERA as the Reds made it to the NLDS against the San Francisco Giants. In Game 2 of the series, Arroyo took a perfect game into the fifth inning, helping lead the Reds to a 9-0 victory. However, the Giants went on to win the series. In Arroyo’s final season with the Reds in 2013, he went 14-12 with a 3.79 ERA and threw one shutout and two complete games. Following that season, he became a free agent.
