Cincinnati Outlasts Dodgers 3-2: Foster hits game winner in 10th
And this one belongs to the Reds...

The Dodgers were the first to touch home plate Monday night when Jim Wynn crossed thanks to an RBI Double off the bat of Ivan deJesus. The Reds would regain the lead in the top of the 6th when Tony Perez knocked in Johnny Bench with a single. Ken Griffey's sac fly later in the inning made the ballgame 2-1 Redlegs. However, the Dodgers would answer in the bottom half. After back to back singles by Steve Garvey and Ron Cey, Fred Norman's wild pitch tied the game back up at 2 runs apiece. Thats the way things would stay until Tony Perez' RBI single in the top of the 10th proved to be a game winner. A slight worry for Reds fans that has been hidden in these latest wins is middle of the infield defense. The Reds double-play combination of Joe Morgan and Dave Concepcion have combined for 6 errors in 7 games. But hey, you know what they say, a wins a win, and the Cincinnati Reds are 5-2 and hold an early lead of the NL West. The Reds will be back in action tomorrow evening as they are hosted, once again, by the Dodgers in game 2 of this best-of-four series.
