On a beautiful night at Collins park, the Reds beat the Padres 9-5 to get back on the winning side ending a tough 6 game losing streak behind A C Cleary On the bump for a complete game victory. We jumped out for 7 in the 1st led by Tony Parella's 3 run homer. Many guys had at least 1 hit, but the key to this game was centerfielder Lance Meeson making catch after catch to keep the Padres off base. Series ends up tied 1-1, so see ya in the Playoffs.
