A trio of Reds' pitchers combined on a four-hitter and shut out the Astros, 2-0. Don Gullett hurled the first five innings. Clay Carroll and Wayne Granger worked two apiece. The Reds scored a run in the opening frame on a single by Tommy Helms and double by Bobby Tolan. The other tally in the eighth counted on a single by Pete Rose, a sacrifice, an infield out and an error.
