Reds Win, 7-3, at Chicago
Cincinnati beat Chicago on the strength of starting pitcher Mike Shepard's fine effort. The left-hander led his team to a win, 7-3. Cincinnati raised its record to 81-79 with the win.

Josh Vilcheck was 1-3 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Cincinnati. The three-time All-Star had a key at-bat in the top of the sixth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Kevin Hancock. It was his 50th RBI of the season.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Vilcheck.
