A loser of two previous decisions this season, Dock Ellis entered the winning column by pitching the Pirates to a 2-0 victory over the Phillies. The Pirates scored initially in the first inning on a single by Bill Robinson, double by Al Oliver and groundout by Willie Stargell. Their other run followed in the seventh on two walks and a single by Rennie Stennett. [The Sporting News]
