Mike Schmidt drove in four runs with three hits, including his 26th homer, and Ollie Brown batted in four more with a grand slam as the Phillies defeated the Pirates, 13-7. The Pirates, who had a round-tripper by Willie Stargell, knocked out Jim Kaat and tied the score at 7-7 with a four-run rally in the eighth inning. The Phillies immediately retaliated with six runs in their half. Schmidt singled to break the tie and, after two more hits loaded the bases, Brown connected for his jackpot wallop.
