Making first start since pitching a no-hitter, Ed Halicki had his spell broken by the Phillies, who defeated the Giants, 3-1. Tommy Hutton singled with one out in the second inning forthe  first hit off Halicki, who had posted his gem against the Mets August 24.

However, the Phillies did not score against the 6-7 righthander until the sixth when Garry Maddox was safe on an error, stole second and crossed the plate on a single by Larry Bowa. The Giants tied the score with a triple by Chris Speier and single by Dave Rader in the seventh. Halicki walked Johnny Oates with one away in the eighth and fanned Tim McCarver for his 12th strikeout of the game, but Dave Cash doubled to drive in Oates with the tie-breaking run.
