Oneil Cruz singled home Konnor Griffin for the game's only run in the bottom of the eighth inning to lift the Pirates to a 1-0 win over the Reds on Sunday. Cruz finished 2-for-4 and also stole a base.

Fantasy Impact:

Cruz singled in his first at bat and in his last at bat on Sunday, with the latter being the game-winner for the Pirates. He also stole his 11th base of the season following his single in the first inning, which moved him into sole possession of second place in the National League in that category. Cruz had a good series against the Reds as he went 5-for-15 with four singles, a double, two runs scored, two RBI, and a stolen base. The centerfielder is hitting .264 with nine home runs on the year and has moved into a tie for fifth in the NL with 28 runs batted in.
