during a five-run eighth inning today as the Los Angeles Dodgers
beat the Cincinnati Reds 10-to-5.
Rafael Furcal went four-for-four with a run-scoring bunt and
Nomar Garciaparra had three R-B-I singles for the N-L West leading
Dodgers.
It was the ninth straight time the Dodgers beat the Reds and the
15th in the last 19 meetings.
Ken Griffey Junior homered on Mother's Day for the sixth time in

awareness.

the career chart.

two-and-two. Kirk Saarloos fell to oh-and-three with the loss.
