Gary Nolan and Wayne Granger combined to pitch the Reds to a 4-0 victory over the Cardinals before a sellout crowd of 51,019, including 17,500 teenagers, at new Riverfront Stadium. Nolan, who yielded six hits, was lifted with one out in the eighth inning after Jose Cardenal singled, Lou Brock walked and the count on Joe Hague went to three balls and one strike. Granger induced Hague to ground into a double play and set the Cards down in the ninth to record his 22nd save. Johnny Bench and Bernie Carbo homered for the Reds. [The Sporting News]
