Vitagliano, Reds Too Much for Royals
Led by 21-year-old Hugo Vitagliano, the Cincinnati (SS-A) Reds knocked off the Kansas City (SS-A) Royals, 9-3. Vitagliano was 4 for 5 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 4 for the Reds. Danny Samico was the winner. Over 5.1 innings, he yielded 3 runs on 4 hits, with 5 walks and 7 strikeouts. With the win, Cincinnati (SS-A) boosts its record to 2-5.

Gaspar Paulo had a big 2-run double for the Reds in the bottom of the first inning. With Cincinnati (SS-A) leading 2-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from 22-year old left-handed pitcher Raul Moreno and swatted a double to right. It was his 2nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Reds ahead, 4-0.

"Nice to get this one," said Vitagliano. "Wins have been hard to come by."
