Milwaukee Decked, 8-7, by Reds
The Cincinnati Reds beat the Milwaukee Brewers, 8-7, in part because of left fielder Tito Polo. He went 4-5 with a double and 3 singles. He drove in 4 runs. Cincinnati, now 73-68, holds down third place in the National League Central Division.

The game was all tied up in the bottom of the eighth, until Polo delivered big-time for Cincinnati, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Ed Gaines. The game-changing hit put the Reds on top, 8-7.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Polo.
