Six consecutive singles in the sixth inning produced four runs and carried the Giants to a 5-2 victory over the Pirates. Gaylord Perry, Bobby Bonds and Tito Fuentes got the first three hits to load the bases. Willie Mays singled to drive in one run and Willie McCovey followed with a single to plate two tallies and kayo Bruce Kison. After Nelson Briles relieved, Ken Henderson singled for the fourth run of the frame. Willie Stargell hit his 34th homer for the Pirates. [The Sporting News] |
