Kein Henderson climaxed a perfect night at the plate by smashing a grand-slam homer in the ninth inning to give the Giants a 15-11 victory in a slugfest with the Braves. Gary Neibauer issued three passes to load the bases before Milt Pappas took the mound to become the victim of Henderson's wallop. The Braves began the scoring with eight runs in the second inning. Tony Gonzalez, batting twice in the stanza, accounted for three RBIs with a double and a single.
