The Giants rallied for six runs in the ninth inning to defeat the Dodgers, 7-4. The Dodgers knocked out Juan Marichal in the seventh while taking a 4-1 lead. The Giants' rally began with a single by Chris Speier. Jim Brewer replaced Claude Osteen and failed to retire a batter. Walks to Tito Fuentes and Willie Mays filled the bases and Willie McCovey doubled to drive in two runs.

Pete Mikkelsen took over and, after an intentional pass, Dick Dietz singled with one out to drive in two more runs. Another tally followed when Willie Crawford muffed a line drive by Hal Lanier and the final run counted when Ed Goodson singled. [The Sporting News]
