The Pirates erupted for all their runs in the seventh inning and defeated the Astros, 4-0, behind the six-hit pitching of Bob Moose. Singles by Richie Zisk, Milt May and Rennie Stennett produced the first run to break up Moose's scoreless duel with Tom Griffin. The Pirates added their other tallies, after Ken Forsch relieved, on a sacrifice fly by Manny Sanguillen, single by Gene Clines and double by Richie Hebner.
