Although Willie McCovey smashed a two-run homer to mark his return to the lineup after being out seven weeks with a broken arm, the Giants lost to the Pirates 4-3. The Pirates, who started the scoring with a circuit clout by Jose Pagan, fell behind on McCovey's blow, but then rallied for three runs in the seventh on a single by Steve Blass, doubles by Dave Cash and Al Oliver and a single by Roberto Clemente.
