The Reds need only 9 minutes to record a win, as Jay Bruce singles with the bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th for a 1 – 0 victory over the Phillies. The game was suspended by rain while still scoreless after 8 1/2 innings the previous night. Two hours later, after the few spectators who made the trip to witness the end of the suspended game have been cleared, the regularly scheduled game starts, and Cincinnati completes a sweep with an 11 – 2 win over Philly. Mike Leake is the hero, pitching seven scoreless innings while collecting three hits and scoring three runs.
