Matt Stairs had a good game, but he could not keep the Cincinnati Reds from falling, 5-3, to the Kansas City Royals at Riverfront Stadium. The Cincinnati designated hitter was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice in the loss. Rick Reed earned the win for Kansas City. He lasted 7.1 innings, allowing 3 earned runs on 6 hits, while striking out 6. With the win, he raised his record to 6-5. Kansas City leads the Federal League Central Division by 2 games.

Kansas City used the clutch hitting of Jim Thome to capture the win. The designated hitter drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Royals the lead, 4-3. For the game, Thome had 1 single and 1 double in 3 at-bats.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Thome.
