Reds Rebuff Cardinals, 7-6
The Cincinnati Reds defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-6, in National League action at Great American Ball Park. Cincinnati pitcher Dave Rivera had a standout performance. Cincinnati has 4 straight wins, St. Louis 3 straight losses.

The Cardinals had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Reds going into the bottom of the second inning. That changed quickly when the 24-year old center fielder Joseph Kirchmann came to the plate. Kirchmann hit a bases-clearing double on a 1-0 changeup from St. Louis hurler Josh Ambrose. It was Kirchmann's 14th double of the year.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Cincinnati manager Jimmy Silveira II.
