Exploding for nine runs in the third inning, the Pirates outlasted the Reds, 12-9. Winning pitcher Rick Rhoden began the outburst with a double and later in the frame socked a two-run homer. Johnny Ray blasted a three-run homer in the third and also stroked a two-run single in the Bucs' three-run fourth, which opened the lead to 12-0. [The Sporting News]
