A two-out bases-loaded double in the ninth inning lifted the Cubs to a 2-1 victory over the Reds. The Cubs trailed, 1-0, going into the bottom of the frame and appeared doomed when their first two batters went out. But Larry Biittner and Manny Trillo singled off starter Mike LaCoss. Doug Bair relieved and walked Ivan DeJesus to load the sacks before Dave Rader smashed the ball high off the right field wall.
