Pushing across a run in the bottom of the 10th inning, the Reds edged the Phillies, 2-1. Ray Knight triggered the winning surge with a single and moved to second on a sacrifice by Hector Cruz. After a walk to Paul Blair, pinch-hitter Vic Correll doubled home Knight with the decisive run. [The Sporting News]
