The Reds' good-luck starter, Mike LaCoss, got help from Doug Bair over the last 1 2/3 innings and beat the Phillies, 4-2, for his sixth straight victory. In addition, the Reds also had won the five other games that LaCoss started this season. George Foster hit a two-run homer for the Reds in the sixth and Ken Griffey added a solo shot in the eighth to send the Phillies down to their sixth setback in succession.
