Bob Robertson rapped two homers and a single, driving in five runs, to set the Pirates' pace in a 13-3 victory over the Padres behind the five-hit pitching of Jerry Reuss. Willie Stargell doubled and scored on a single by Richie Zisk before Robertson hit his first homer of the game in the second inning. The Pirates continued to pile up runs, one of them on Robertson's single in the fifth, before calling it quits with three in the sixth on a triple by Al Oliver, single by Stargell and Robertson's second homer. Cito Gaston and Nate Colbert hit for the circuit to account for the Padres' runs. [The Sporting News]
