REDS Have Big Lead.
Moran has all the tactical advan-
taEe- The SoX showed Thursday that
they have the better team, that they
play the inside game better and there
were two spots in which the Reds
looked quite amateurish-on was

effort 10 stop the double steal. and the
other time was when the Eees issued
