Nosediving Reds Drop 8th Straight
The Chicago Cubs faced a tough opponent in Cincinnati pitcher Danny Jackson, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Great American Ball Park by a final score of 6-4. Jackson went 6 innings and allowed 4 runs. Sean Marshall nailed down his 35th save. With the win over Cincinnati, the Cubs improved to 78-81.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Rick Wilkins to seize the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Cubs on top, 6-4. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Bad luck's the only luck we've had," said Cincinnati manager Brian McElroy.
