The Pirates, after losing the first game of a twi-night doubleheader, 5-2, came back to beat the Phillies in the second game, 3-2. Larry Bowa led the Phillies at bat in the lidlifter, driving in two runs and scoring two. Willie Stargell homered for the Pirates.

Manny Sanguillen, who had five hits in seven trips in the twinbill, smashed a homer in the second inning of the nightcap and drove in another run with a single in the fourth. The Pirates added what proved to be their winning marker in the eighth on a single by Gene Clines, his theft of second and a single by Stargell. The Phillies rallied for their two runs in the ninth on a walk to Terry Harmon, triple by Bowa and double by Greg Luzinski before Dave Giusti retired the last two batters on strikes to record his 16th save of the season.
