WEB GEMS- Bot 5th: Joe Torre robbed Phil Niekro of a base hit.

The Iowa MnlightGraham came roaring back in the top of the ninth to spoil the
anticipated celebration of the hometown fans.  The final score,, was 4 to
3.

Iowa erupted with the game winning runs in the 9th inning with 3 runs
utilizing 2 base hits.  After an out was recorded, Cookie Rojas started the
attack as he doubled.  One out later, Ron Blomberg came to bat and drew a
walk.  Steve Brye then launched a three-run homer.  Iowa had only 5 hits for
the afternoon.  

Eduardo Rodriguez(8-2) allowed no runs in 2 innings, and picked up the
victory. Max Leon got the save, his 3rd.  Mike Cosgrove(3-3) was the loser in
relief.  He gave up 1 hit and 1 walk in 2/3 of an inning.  

Cincinnati's manager was understandably not very talkative after his team's
tough loss.  He quickly showered and changed and when asked about the game
had a terse, yet polite response, 'Hey fellows, that game was a heart-breaker
to lose.  Our guys gave it their all and played well - fate just wasn't
smilin' on us this afternoon'
