Reds Hook Marlins 7-6 in Extras

Posted May 14, 08 11:54 PM CDT in Sports 

(Newser) – The Cincinnati Reds blew a six-run lead in the ninth, but Paul Janish singled home the tiebreaking run in only his second big-league at-bat for a 7-6, 10-inning victory over the Florida Marlins on Wednesday night. Renyel Pinto (1-2) walked two with two outs before Janish, who arrived from the minors earlier in the day, singled to right field to end it, raising his right fist in triumph.

Jared Burton (2-1) pitched a perfect 10th for the win. The Reds matched their season high with their third straight win, all against a Marlins team that came to town on a seven-game winning streak.

Hank Steinbrenner confirmed today that team officials are at least talking about acquiring baseball's home-run king, though he wouldn't say just how serious those talks are. Given how late it is in the season, the prospects are unlikely, the AP reports. The slugger, who turned 44 today, became a free agent when the San Francisco Giants did not bring him back this season.

    Baseball's Youngest GM Makes His Mark Jon Daniels is 30. He’s a little geeky. The last time he played baseball was in Little League, and he wasn't very good. Jon Daniels also is in his third season as manager of the Texas Rangers, part of a new breed of sports executives sprung not from the rough and tumble fields but from academia and white-collar work.
