Reds Win, 8-7, at Houston
The Cincinnati Reds topped the Houston Astros, 8-7, at Astrodome 1965. Cincinnati catcher John Malkin banged out 2 singles and 1 double, while driving in 3 runs. The winning pitcher was Steve Brown. He tossed 82 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 5 runs on 7 hits. Mike Armstrong got the save, his 1st in 1 chances.

It could have been a different outcome for Cincinnati, had it not been for Mike Easler, the 31-year old right fielder . Easler contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put Cincinnati up, 8-6.

"We put it together today and came out with the win," Easler said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."

Cincinnati has now won 6 games in a row.
