Pete Rose went over the 2,000 total in hits and Fred Norman pitched his second straight shutout as the Reds defeated the Giants, 4-0. Rose flied out in the first inning and then hit three consecutive singles to reach the 2,000 plateau before adding a double in his fifth time at bat in the eighth. Norman gave up only three hits.
