The Cincinnati Reds got a rather unremarkable outing from starting pitcher Jose Rijo, but it was good enough for the club to take a 6-3 decision over the Boston Red Sox. Rijo picked up the win for Cincinnati, going 5.1 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 4 hits. He now sports a record of 13-8. The Reds bumped their record to 76-63 with this latest triumph.

One of the key players for the Reds was shortstop Craig Grebeck, who drilled a 2-run double in the bottom of the first inning. For the game, Grebeck was 1-3 with a double. He drove in 2 runs.

"Jose was pounding the zone," said Cincinnati manager Eric Deutsch.
