The Cleveland Spiders got a sterling performance from catcher Tony Eusebio, but the Reds still prevailed, 6-4. Eusebio was named the player of the game in a losing cause. He was 3-4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 runs. Cincinnati is now 66-47, Cleveland 50-63.

Cincinnati took a 5-4 lead on Eric Davis's 30th home run of the season. The 2-run home run came off Cleveland pitcher Bob Sebra in the bottom of the seventh.

"We take it day by day here," said Davis, "and today was a good one for us."
