A bases-loaded single by Tony Perez with one out in the 10th inning scored Pete Rose and gave the Reds a 5-4 victory over the Pirates. Rose led off with a single and Joe Morgan walked. After Bobby Tolan sacrificed, the Pirates walked Johnny Bench intentionally to set the stage for Perez' appearance at the plate. [The Sporting News] |
