Reds Get Win, Extend Streak to 4
The New York Yankees got a sterling performance from pitcher Mark Clark, but the Reds still prevailed, 5-3. Clark was named the player of the game in a losing cause. He threw 7 innings of 4-hit ball. Doug Henry converted his 13th save in 25 tries. The second-place Reds have won 4 straight.

Scott Rolen was a prime factor in the win for the Reds. In the top of the third with one out, the 1996 Rookie of the Year winner hit a 2-run double. He was 1 for 4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

"It feels good to get this one," Rolen told the Cincinnati News.
