Mussina was in the zone all game. He frustrated New York hitters while giving the Reds 9 innings of quality work. Mussina threw 124 pitches, allowing 5 hits and getting 7 punchouts.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Mussina told the Cincinnati News.
