Cincinnati rode a good effort from starter Peek-A-Boo Veach to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates at Exposition Park 1891-1908. The final score was 9-1. Veach got the win, improving to 26-18. He allowed 7 hits and walked 1 over 9 innings. Veach allowed 1 run. Cincinnati is now 72-67, while Pittsburgh is 58-81.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Jack O'Connor? The Cincinnati catcher had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Reds on top, 3-1. For the game, O'Connor had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said O'Connor.
