Pinch-hitter Tommy Hutton came through with a two-run homer in the ninth inning to enable the Phillies to defeat the Cubs, 4-3. The Cubs, who scored three unearned runs off Steve Carlton in the fourth, had Horacio Pina on the mound to protect a 3-2 lead in the ninth, but the reliever walked Willie Montanez and, after Billy Grabarkewitz came in to run, Hutton hit the next pitch into the right field bleachers. The Cubs loaded the bases with one out in their half of the ninth, but Eddie Watt came in and induced Jose Cardenal to ground into a double play. [The Sporting News]
