Toronto Downed, 9-7, by Royals
In the 9-7 Cincinnati win over Toronto, the impact of Scott King was substantial. King, who finished 4th in the NC in doubles with 49 in 2023, was 3 for 4 with 2 doubles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Josh Hunter earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2.1 innings. His record is now 3-0. The win gives Cincinnati a season record of 86-56.

The game was at a stalemate until first baseman Aaron Jalbert came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Toronto pitcher Cory Gregerson, he hit a 1-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Cincinnati on top, 6-5.

"It was a good night for them and a bad night for us," said Toronto manager Walt DeRosier.
