The Cincinnati Reds stopped the Minnesota Twins, 6-1, at Riverfront Stadium. The Reds got a big game from Bobby Higginson, who was 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Mike Mussina was the winning pitcher. Over 6 innings, he allowed 1 run on 6 hits, with 1 walk and 5 strikeouts. The save was Greg Mathews's, his 1st.
Matt Lawton, who is tied for 4th in the FL in bases on balls with 33, contributed to the Cincinnati win with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the first. For the game, the right fielder had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 2 runs batted in.
"I just try to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Lawton.
Cincinnati is now 32-21, Minnesota 24-28.
