MIAMI, May 31 (UPI) -- Ken Griffey's three-run homer in the seventh inning off Justin Wayne gave the Cincinnati Reds a 9-7 victory Monday over the Florida Marlins.
It was the 494th home run of Griffey's career, moving him ahead of Lou Gehrig and into sole possession of 20th place on the all-time list.
Monday, with runners on first and second and one out in the seventh, Wayne (3-2) ended up hanging a slider to Griffey, who pulled it over the right field wall for his 13th homer of the season.
Sean Casey helped the Reds erase a 5-0 deficit with two homers and four RBI.
Barry Larkin and Casey hit back-to-back homers in the fifth to give the Reds a 6-5 lead.
The Marlins reclaimed the lead with a pair of runs in the sixth. The first scored on a throwing error by catcher Jason LaRue and Mike Lowell singled home the second.
