The Cincinnati Reds electrified the home crowd with a walk-off win.

The Cincinnati Reds had to overcome a fine effort from Pittsburgh pitcher Luis Gallegos to win, 4-3, at Great American Ball Park. Gallegos went 8 innings and allowed 2 runs. Cincinnati is now 76-83, Pittsburgh 75-84.

The decisive blow was delivered by Juan Ayala in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a run-scoring double off 26-year old right-handed pitcher Joe Kaiser to win the game for Cincinnati. The home crowd went nuts.

"If you ever get this game figured out," said Pittsburgh manager Jose Mijares, "let me know."
