Mussina Sensational for Reds
Cincinnati Reds starter Mike Mussina turned in a top-notch performance against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The result was a win for the Reds, 6-1. The Reds bumped their record to 75-52 with this latest triumph.

Mussina, who dominated for Cincinnati, earned the victory to move to 17-10. He was in control the whole game, scattering 7 hits over 9 innings, while striking out 11. Chicago batters could never bunch up enough hits to produce a rally.

"Mike is tough when he's hitting his spots," said Cincinnati manager John Frey.
