at Bradenton, Fla.
Monday, March 30

Reds at the plate: Infielder Adam Rosales doubled in the Reds' sixth-inning run. Laynce Nix scored on the two-base hit after being credited with a double that the Pirates' outfielders lost in the sun. Nix singled and scored on another Rosales double in the eighth. Second baseman Brandon Phillips and shortstop Paul Janish each went 1-for-2.

Pirates at the plate: Eric Hinske doubled and scored on Craig Monroe's fourth-inning sacrifice fly. Catcher Ryan Doumit also doubled in one of his three at-bats. Pitcher Ross Ohlendorf was the only other starter with a hit. Jeff Salazar tied the game in the ninth with an RBI single off Josh Roenicke before Jason Jaramillo won it with a walk-off RBI single off Daniel Ray Herrera.

Reds on the mound: Cincinnati starter Johnny Cueto allowed one run on three hits and four walks in five innings. He struck out two. David Weathers came out of the 'pen and pitched a quick and perfect sixth inning. Mike Lincoln followed with a perfect inning of relief himself. Francisco Cordero also pitched a scoreless frame, walking one.

Pirates on the mound: Ohlendorf had yet another strong Spring Training start, this time finishing 5 1/3 innings and allowing one run on three hits. He walked two, struck out three and has now allowed just two runs in 20 2/3 spring innings. Reliever Denny Bautista pitched 1 2/3 scoreless innings, though he did allow an inherited runner to score. He allowed three hits and a walk. Reliever Jesse Chavez allowed the Reds' go-ahead run in the eighth.

Grapefruit League records: Pirates 15-13-2; Reds 13-17
