Brilliant relief pitching by Elias Sosa enabled the Giants to edge the Reds, 5-4. Sosa took over in the sixth inning and preserved a one-run margin, allowing the local nine but one hit the rest of the route. The Giants got only five hits but four of them came in the third inning and, combined with a couple of walks, enabled the victors to score their five runs. The key blows in the frame were bases-loaded singles by Steve Ontiveros and Ken Rudolph. The loss snapped a personal five-game winning streak for Red starter Don Gullett.
