The Giants used two catchers, Dick Dietz and Russ Gibson, and each smashed a homer in support of John Cumberland, who beat the Phillies, 7-0, for his first victory since July 8. Dietz homered after Willie McCovey was safe on an error in the second inning. Tito Fuentes and McCovey were on base with walks when Gibson connected for the circuit in the seventh.
