Conditions were not ideal but Cincinnati and Atlanta were able to put their game in the books.

The Cincinnati Reds beat the Atlanta Firebirds, 9-6, at SunTrust Park. Jose Peraza, in particular, was impressive. He was 3-5 with a double and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Cincinnati reliever Julius Taylor picked up the win, upping his record to 3-2. Curt Wilkerson took the loss.

Cincinnati took advantage of an error in the top of the tenth inning. The game was tied, 4-4, when Ben Riley hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put the Reds in front, 6-4.

"Hustle and hard work is a big part of our success," said Riley. "Those qualities define our team."

The win has Cincinnati at 14-24.
