Alonso also hit a solo home run while Jay Bruce hit a two-run shot for the Reds.
Emilio Bonafacio hit a two-run homer for Florida.
The Reds and Marlins will play a doubleheader today.
Thursday night's scheduled game was moved to Wednesday due to the possibility of Hurricane Irene hitting South Florida.
