Reds Win, 5-3, at Kansas City
Cincinnati and Kansas City duked it out and the Reds came out victorious.

Cincinnati starter Eddie Grape had a strong outing against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The left-hander was a big part of his team's 5-3 win. In 5.2 innings, Grape surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 3. He allowed 1 run. Justin Ambrose was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 1 of 1 save opportunities.

The Reds got a big hit from shortstop Saulo Maina. In the top of the fifth, Maina pounded a solo home run to left-center. His 28th home run of the season put the Reds ahead, 3-1.

"Winning never gets dull," said Grape.

The second-place Royals have lost 4 straight games.
