Cubs Go Down to Defeat, 5-1
Boosted by the 2-hit performance of Aaron Boone the Cincinnati Reds defeated the Chicago Cubs, 5-1. Cincinnati has now won 4 straight, while the Cubs have lost 3 in a row.

Johnny Bench drove in one run for Cincinnati. The 22-year old catcher had a key at-bat in the bottom of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Clark Griffith. It was his 8th RBI of the season.

Bench called the win "a pick-me-upper."
