Willie Stargell smashed two homers and three doubles, tying the major league record for most extra-base hits in one game, to lead the Pirates' slugging in a 20-10 victory over the Braves. In the seventh inning, Bob Robertson, Stargell and Jose Pagan hit consecutive homers for the Pirates and Hank Aaron and Rico Carty rapped back-to-back drives for the Braves, tying the record for the most homers by two clubs in one inning. Aaron's circuit clout in the seventh was his second of the game. Tony Gonzalez also hit one for the Braves. [The Sporting News] |
