Dave Concepcion singled and scored in the first inning, homered in the fifth and then drove in the deciding run with a double in the seventh to give the Reds a 3-2 victory over the Braves. Don Gullett, who was the Reds' winner, helped himself by hitting a single and scoring on Concepcion's two-out double. [The Sporting News]
