Saturday May 4,1985
AT
Riverfront Stadium,Cincinnati,Oh.

22 year old Reds CF Eric Davis made history today,hitting for the cycle while going 4 for 4 with 4 RBI,a stolen base and 3 runs scored to lead the Reds past the always tough New York Mets 10-7.Davis,tripled in the 2nd,doubled in the 5th,singled in the 6th,and knocked in the eventual game winning runs with a grand slam in the 7th off of the Mets Ed Lynch.Thanks to the heroics of Davis,Reds starter Jay Tibbs(3-2) was able to collect his 3rd win of the season despite a shaky start in which he allowed 5 runs(3 earned) on 7 hits and 4 walks,while striking out 5.Reliever John Franco got the save.For the Mets,1B keith Hernandez paced the offense,going 3 for 4 with a homer an RBI and a run scored,while starting pitcher Rick Aguilera(1-3) lasted just 6 innings,allowing 5 runs on 8 hits and 2 walks while striking out 6,dropping his record to 1-3.

MLB News And Notes
Despite getting homers from George Bell and Jorge Orta,the Royals continued to slide,losing to the Yankees 4-3 on a Mike Pagliarulo RBI double in the bottom of the 13th inning.

Rumors are rampant in the Toronto clubhouse,that disgruntled 1B Willie Aikens is close to being dealt by the team.Aikens had no comment.

Two run homers from Jody Davis and Ryne Sandberg combined with a stunning performance by Steve Trout(2-2) who allowed just 1 run on 3 hits over 8 innings pitched gave the Cubs a 4-1 victory over defending NL champion San Diego.Lee Smith got the save,his 10th.
