Bert Gooderston, who leads the NL in strikeouts with 46, pitched well, but the Cincinnati Reds still fell short, losing, 3-2, to the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. Chicago is now 15-21. Cincinnati is 18-18.

Dave Hopper went 2-4 with a double for Chicago. The 28-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With no one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Bert Gooderston. It was his 12th RBI of the season.

"We busted our tails," said Cincinnati manager Kevin Cash. "But we came up short."
