The Cincinnati Reds ushered in the 1982 season with a win versus the Chicago Cubs at Riverfront Stadium 1970. The final score was 7-5. Third Baseman Bill Melton, who finished 4th in the AL in RBI with 101 in 1971, had a standout performance. Gary Nolan, the winning pitcher, improved to 1-0. He pitched 8 innings, giving up 11 hits and 5 runs, while striking out 4 and walking 1. Jay Dillard sewed up the save, his 1st.

Cincinnati took a 7-5 lead on Jim Bennett's 1st home run of the season. The 2-run home run came off Chicago pitcher Tom Niedenfuer in the bottom of the eighth.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Cincinnati manager Jonathan Powles.
