1930 Ken Ash, throwing just one pitch in relief of Larry Benton, is credited with a full inning of work when he induces Charlie Grimm to hit into a triple play in the Reds' 6-5 victory over the Cubs at Redland Field. The 28-year-old West Virginian right-hander, replaced for a pinch-hitter in the bottom of the frame, gets the victory when Cincinnati takes the lead for good in that frame.
2005 Ryan Freel becomes the first player in the Reds' 136-year history to steal five bases in a game, including two in the ninth that moves him to third base, where he scores the eventual winning run on Felipe Lopez's sacrifice fly. The Cincinnati second baseman's thievery contributes to the team's 7-6 victory over the Dodgers at Chavez Ravine.
