With Cincinnati leading 3-1 in the top of the ninth, Maina came up to bat against Kansas City pitcher Brandon Ferrari. Maina hit a changeup to right for a 3-run home run. His 27th home run of the season put the Reds on top, 6-1.

"You work hard, day in and day out, hoping to give the fans something to cheer about. Today was a good day," Maina told the Cincinnati Today.
