Tony Perez singled in the 10th inning and scored on a double by Denis Menke to give the Reds a 5-4 victory over the Astros. Tommy Helms homered with two men on base in the fourth inning to put the Astros ahead, 3-1, but Menke got one run back for the Reds with a circuit clout in their half. After Cesar Cedeno doubled and Jim Wynn singled for another Astro run in the fifth, the Reds tied the score in the seventh when Pete Rose singled and Joe Morgan homered.
