Jerry Reuss scattered eight hits and pitched the Pirates to a 4-0 victory over the Braves. Ron Reed, who started for the Braves, retired the first 12 batters before Willie Stargell singled in the fifth inning. Richie Zisk followed with a single and when Dusty Baker not only fumbled the hit but then threw wildly back to the infield for two errors on one play, Stargell scored and Zisk reached third. An infield out by Frank Taveras then enabled Zisk to score. The Pirates added their last two runs off reliever Tom House in the ninth when Bob Robertson doubled with the bases loaded.
