Two big innings saw the Phillies score seven runs in the third and four in the eighth to emerge with an 11-10 victory over the Cubs, who fell short with a grand-slam homer by Jerry Morales in the final frame. A homer by Rick Monday helped the Cubs score three times in the first before the Phillies went on their spree in the third. Five of their seven runs were unearned on an error by Don Kessinger. Mike Schmidt batted in two runs with a single and Bob Boone, coming up with the bases loaded, cleared the sacks with a double.

The Cubs narrowed the deficit to 7-6 before the Phillies had their other big inning in the eighth. With one out, a single by Boone, double by Bill Robinson and intentional pass to Dave Cash loaded the bases. Larry Bowa hit a sacrifice fly. After another pass on purpose to Schmidt filled the sacks again, Willie Montanez drove in three runs with a long single. In the Cubs' ninth, Larry Christenson issued three walks and then gave up the first grand slam of Morales' major league career before retiring the side to end the game. [The Sporting News]
