Pitching was the name of the game in a tight contest between the Chicago Cubs and the Cincinnati Reds. Chicago won it, 2-1. Chicago starter Mike Koch was in command. Luis Pizana recorded the save, making him 1 for 1. The Cubs lead the National League Central Division by 11½ games.

With scoring opportunities rare, the Cubs had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the bottom of the second, when right fielder Danny Perkins hit a run-scoring single. The single came off Jared Hawkinson and made the score 2-0, Cubs. Perkins was 1-2 with 2 walks.

"Mike is good at sticking to his strengths," said Chicago manager Alan Johnson.
