Don Gullett pitched 7 1/3 innings of hitless ball before giving up a double by Cleo James as the Reds defeated the Cubs, 8-2. After James' double, Paul Popovich walked. Chris Cannizzaro popped up. Ernie Banks, pinch-hitting, then smashed a liner that bounced off Dave Concepcion's glove for an error, allowing James and Popovich to score.
