Dan Driessen left the yard and had 2 RBI at Riverfront Stadium as the

Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago Cubs 5 to 4.



Cincinnati jumped on top to stay in the bottom of the 6th inning scoring 2

runners on 2 hits. Chicago threatened in the 9th but their rally came up

short.



Gary Nolan(5-5) was the winner allowing 4 runs in 6 innings. Nolan was helped

out by Rawly Eastwick who recorded his 2nd save. Rick Reuschel(4-8) took the

loss. He surrendered 8 hits and 3 walks in 8 innings.



'I always am most impressed when a pitcher finds a way to win even without his

best stuff,' Sparky Anderson said after the game. 'Nolan did not have

command of his pitches most of the afternoon, but he proved he really knew

how to pitch!'
