Posting his first major league shutout, John D'Acquisto pitched the Giants to a 2-0 victory over the Braves. The rookie righthander yielded only four hits. The Giants put together a double by Dave Kingman and single by Chris Speier for a run off Carl Morton in the second inning and added their other tally when Garry Maddox doubled and Tito Fuentes singled in the fifth.
