The Reds erupted for four runs in the sixth inning, three coming on a homer by Bobby Tolan, to defeat the Mets, 5-2. Gary Nolan, making his first start for the Reds since being sidelined with arm trouble August 2, pitched six innings, according to the pre-game plans of manager Sparky Anderson, and then gave way to pinch-hitter George Foster, who doubled.
