Braves Come Up Short at Cincinnati 1976, 4-3
The Cincinnati 1976 Reds picked up a win at Riverfront Stadium, dropping the Atlanta 1995 Braves, 4-3. Fred Norman, who is tied for 10th in the NL with a 8.9 K/9 rate, was the difference-maker. The save went to Pedro Borbon, number 2 for him. With the win, the Reds sit at 32-25.

George Foster drew 1 walk in 4 trips to the plate for Cincinnati 1976. The fan favorite had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off John Smoltz. It was his 53rd RBI of the season.

"Fred had good arm action, good stuff," said Cincinnati 1976 manager Kelly Audia.
