Gaylord Perry became first major league pitcher to win 12 games this season when the Giants' righthander defeated the Braves, 4-1. Perry yielded only four hits, but lost his bid for a shutout when Hal King homered in the ninth, ending the Braves' string of 28 consecutive scoreless innings.

Bobby Bonds started the Giants' scoring with a circuit clout in the first. Two runs followed in the third when Bonds singled, Bob Heise tripled and Willie McCovey singled. A single by Ken Henderson and a double by Al Gallagher added the Giants' last run in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
