| The shutout streak of Fred Norman, who had pitched three in a row, was broken by the Reds, who turned the tables with Gary Nolan and blanked the Padres, 4-0. Joe Morgan, the Reds' second batter in the game, snapped Norman's string with a homer. The Reds added a run in the fourth and chased Norman when Johnny Bench batted in the final two tallies with a bases-loaded single in the fifth. [The Sporting News] |
