The Cincinnati Reds racked up a win at Riverfront Stadium, bumping off the Orlando Devil Rays, 4-3. Joey Hamilton, who started for Cincinnati, pitched effectively for his team. Hamilton, now 15-7, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 11, walking 3, and allowing 3 earned runs. Arthur Rhodes was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 24 of 30 save opportunities.

Scott Spiezio, who is tied for 9th in the FL in doubles with 25, helped out the Cincinnati cause in the bottom of the sixth inning with a 2-run double. For the game, the first baseman went 1-4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

"I had a good game plan," said Hamilton. "I made my pitches." His manager concurred. "It was all there," John Frey said, "the velocity, the sharpness of his pitches."

Cincinnati is now 63-47. Orlando is 59-53.
