Bob Moose, making his first start since his return from Charleston (International), allowed only three hits and pitched the Pirates to a 3-1 victory over the Phillies. A double by Doug Allen and single by Garry Maddox accounted for the Phillies' run in the fifth inning.

The Pirates bounced back with their counters off Steve Carlton in the sixth. Richie Zisk singled and Bob Robertson doubled. After an intentional pass to Bill Robinson, Richie Hebner singled, driving in two runs, and Duffy Dyer followed with another single to plate the final marker. [The Sporting News]
