Garry Maddox drove in six runs with two homers, including the first grand slam of his major league career, to power the Giants to a 7-5 victory over the Cubs. The rookie outfielder's slugging helped Juan Marichal to enter the winning column for the first time since July 14 and only the fifth time this season.

Ken Henderson homered for the Giants' first run in the fourth inning before Maddox swung into action with a two-run blast in fifth and his grand slam following two walks around single by Dave Rader in the sixth. Don Kessinger and Jim Hickman hit homers for the Cubs. [The Sporting News]
