The Giants absorbed their first shutout of the season, losing to Rick Wise, 1-0, in the opener of a doubleheader, but then broke a five-game losing streak when Willie Mays smashed a homer in the 12th inning to beat the Phillies in the nightcap, 4-3. Wise allowed only three hits and was the winner when Willie Montanez doubled in the sixth inning and Ron Stone singled.

The Giants also were on the verge of losing the second game, but rallied to tie the score with two runs in the ninth on a double by Mays, single by Ken Henderson, a late throw to second on a bunt by Bernie Williams and a single by Bobby Bonds. [The Sporting News]
