The Reds’ Johnny Bench hits a 2-run homer in the bottom of the 10th to beat the Braves, 8 – 6. He hit a grand slam yesterday in a 7 – 5 win over Atlanta, and he’ll have 11 homers and 33 ribbies for September.

Jose Reyes becomes the youngest player in major league history to hit a home run from each side of the plate. The 20 year-old shortstop accounts for all the Mets runs, hitting a solo shot from the right side of the dish off southpaw Mike Hampton in the fifth inning, and then, batting as left-handed hitter in the ninth, a two-run dinger off right-hander Trey Hodges in the team’s 3-1 victory over Atlanta at Turner Field.

Sammy Sosa hits three home runs in consecutive at bats in the third, fourth, and fifth innings, tying a Cubs’ record with nine RBIs, established by Heinie Zimmerman in 1911. With his sixth career three-homer game performance, the Chicago right fielder also ties the major league record set by Johnny Mize and becomes only the fifth player in big league history to homer in three straight innings.
