Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Reds
Getting a good performance from left fielder Mike Smith, the Cincinnati Reds defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates, 7-5. Smith was 4 for 6 with a double and 3 singles for the Reds. Ice Box Chamberlain earned his 2nd save in 2 chances. The Reds raised their record to 56-42.

Cincinnati used the timely hitting of Kevin Linskens to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Reds on top, 7-5. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

In postgame comments, Linskens said, "I think we gave the fans their money's worth."
