Easler Powers Reds to 11-5 Win
The Cincinnati Reds beat the Atlanta Braves, 11-5, at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium 1974. Mike Easler was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4. The 31-year old right fielder was a menace to Atlanta all day. The winner was Gary Nolan, who threw 120 pitches over 9 innings. The right-hander was charged with 5 runs on 10 hits. Cincinnati has now won 3 in a row.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Bill Melton? The Cincinnati third baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Reds on top, 2-0. For the game, Melton had 1 double and 1 single in 2 at-bats.

"This is a very good team," said Easler. "We have the chance to do something special."
