Mario Soto fired a five-hitter and struck out 11 in twirling the Reds to a 5-0 whitewashing of the Pirates. The Reds tallied in the second inning on a run-scoring groundout by Johnny Bench and boosted their margin to 2-0 in the third on an RBI double by Dave Concepcion. A two-run double by Ron Oester was the key blow of a three-run seventh. Pittsburgh's Jason Thompson had two hits, extending his hitting streak to 15 games. [The Sporting News]
