Cincinnati withstood an impressive performance by Chicago right fielder Stephen Piscotty to defeat the Cubs, 6-3, at Great American Ball Park. Piscotty was 3-4 with a home run and a double, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Danny Salazar earned the win for Cincinnati. He lasted 7 innings, allowing 3 earned runs on 4 hits, while striking out 8. With the win, he raised his record to 4-2. Cincinnati has now won 4 straight.

Hanley Ramirez, who finished 3rd in the NL in wins above replacement with 8.6 in 2007, chipped in for Cincinnati with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the first. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 RBI.

In comments to the Cincinnati Daily, Ramirez insisted that he's not as disinterested as it often appears. "Haters will hate," he added.
