With two out in the seventh inning, the Reds exploded for four runs on homers by Pete Rose and Johnny Bench to defeat the Padres, 4-0. Jack Billingham, who pitched the shutout, gained his 10th victory. Rich Troedson, starting for the Padres, was lifted after six innings, according to pre-game plans, and Mike Corkins, who relieved, was the victim of the Reds' blows.
