A three-run homer by Ken Henderson and a bases-loaded homer by George Foster lifted the Reds over the Phillies, 7-2. Henderson's blow came in the seventh inning and followed two-out singles by Johnny Bench and Dave Concepcion. Foster's clout came an inning later and was set up by a walk to Pete Rose, single by Ken Griffey, a wild pitch and an intentional walk to Joe Morgan.

Rose got a bunt single in the ninth inning to extend his consecutive game hitting skein to 32. [The Sporting News]
