Overcoming an early 5-0 deficit, the Phillies toppled the Giants, 7-6, with Greg Luzinski driving in the tying and winning runs with a bases-loaded single in the bottom of the ninth inning.

The left fielder's single capped a three-run rally and was preceded by a walk to Jim Morrison, single by pinch-hitter Jerry Martin, infield hit by Larry Bowa, a double steal and a walk to Mike Schmidt. Bill Madlock rapped three hits and scored three runs to help the Giants to their early lead. [The Sporting News]
