Steve Carlton hurled his 29th career shutout as the Phillies won from the Reds, 4-0. The first Phillie run came when Reds' pitcher Pat Darcy, attempting to pick Garry Maddox off first, threw wildly to send Maddox to third, from where he scored on Greg Luzinski's single. Mike Anderson's single, Carlton's sacrifice bunt and Larry Bowa's single produced another run in the fifth.

The final two runs in the eighth came on a double by Maddox, singles by Luzinski and Tommy Hutton, a double play and infield hits by Anderson and Carlton. Dick Allen made his first appearance of the season for the Phils. He singled in his first at-bat and was 1-for-3 for the night after leaving in the sixth inning with what may have been a muscle pull.
