Backed by the Reds' 23-hit attack, Tony Cloninger turned in his first complete game since September 24, 1969, and breezed to a 14-0 victory over the Expos. In between his complete games, Cloninger had failed to last the route in 25 straight starts. Tommy Helms had four of the Reds' hits, while Pete Rose, Johnny Bench and Buddy Bradford had three each.
