« Reds Edge Dodgers, Move Into Tie for First Place | George Foster Homers in Reds Win Over Astros »

May 30, 1976 at Riverfront Stadium 

Dodgers 6, Reds 5  (26-17)

The Reds dropped the front end of their Sunday doubleheader with the Dodgers in a close game.  The Reds jumped out to a 5-3 after four innings, but the Dodgers picked away at the lead and scored the go ahead run off of Rawly Eastwick in the top of the ninth inning.

Gary Nolan was hit hard and didn’t even make it through the fifth inning.  He gave up four runs on seven hits with four walks.  Eastwick dropped to 3-3 on the season and he already matched last year’s number of losses.

The Reds ran all over catcher Joe Ferguson.  In total, the Reds stole nine bases, including four by Ken Griffey and two by Johnny Bench.  Dave Concepcion went three for four with two runs and Eddie Armbrister went three for four with a run and stolen base.

The Reds won the second game of the doubleheader and took advantage of three Dodger errors.  Tony Perez, Cesar Geronimo and Bill Plummer all hit solo homeruns.

Santo Alcala continued his hot streak as he improved to a perfect 5-0.  The rookie gave up two runs (one earned) on five hits with three walks and two strikeouts.  Will McEnaney held the Dodgers scoreless in the final three frames to earn his first save of the season.
