Quote: "Most guys make history by hitting two grand slams in a game or something. I make history by hitting a ball that's reviewed on instant replay." -- Cliff Floyd of the Marlins.

It's a fact: Cincinnati's 16-10 record last month was its best May since going 20-6 in 1995.

Who's hot: The Rockies' Neifi Perez went 2-for-4 last night and is 16-for-31 (.516) in his past nine games.

Who's not: The Reds' Mike Cameron was 0-for-4 last night and is hitless in 24 at-bats.

On deck: With his next strikeout, the Braves' John Smoltz will become the 52nd pitcher in major-league history with 2,000.
