Terrence Bonney knocked in 3 runs to help Kansas City beat Cincinnati, 4-3. Bonney produced 2 singles and 1 home run. Tom Child, the winning pitcher, improved to 14-23. He pitched 9 innings, giving up 7 hits and 3 runs, while striking out 4 and walking 2. The 7th-place Prairie Dogs improved to 44-77.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Will Hickman to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Prairie Dogs on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"Wish we'd had more wins to celebrate like this one," said Hickman.
