A homer by Manny Sanguillen with a man on base in the seventh inning propelled the Pirates to a 3-2 victory over the Phillies. Richie Zisk was safe on an error by Dave Cash before Sanguillen banged a change-up by Steve Carlton over the left field wall. The Pirates scored their initial run in the fifth on singles by Zisk and Sanguillen and a squeeze bunt by Mario Mendoza.

Alan Bannister singled for the Phillies in the seventh, stole second, moved to third on a sacrifice and scored on a sacrifice fly by Larry Bowa. After Sanguillen's homer broke the tie, the Phillies picked up a run off Bruce Kison in the eighth on an error and singles by Bob Boone and Jay Johnstone before Dave Giusti took over to save the game for the Pirates.
