Johnny Briggs, who batted in the Phillies' first run with a triple in the fifth inning, delivered a run-scoring single in the ninth to beat the Astros, 2-1. Deron Johnson walked in the fifth and counted on Briggs' triple. The Astros tied the score in the ninth on singles by Doug Rader and John Mayberry around a sacrifice and a passed ball. In the Phillies' half, Tony Taylor singled and took second on a sacrifice bunt by Ron Stone. The Astros walked Johnson intentionally, bringing Briggs to the plate for his game-winning single.
