Reds, Buhner Pin Bad Loss on Giants
No one was more impactful than Jay Buhner in the 12-0 Cincinnati win over San Francisco. Buhner, who is tied for 4th in the NL in extra base hits with 55, went 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 5. Francisco Torres, the winner, goes to 12-6. He allowed no runs on 6 hits, with no walks and 8 strikeouts over 8 innings. The Reds sit in first place in the NL National League Central with a record of 70-48.

With Cincinnati leading 5-0 in the bottom of the fifth, Buhner came up to bat against San Francisco pitcher Frank Jaldana. Buhner hit a fastball to left for a 3-run home run. His 36th home run of the season put the Reds on top, 8-0.

San Francisco manager Chris SF GM called the blowout loss "just something that happens."
