Don Gullett pitched a four-hitter and breezed to a 6-0 victory over the Cardinals behind the slugging of the Reds, who rapped three homers among their 13 hits. Bob Gibson, who started for the Cardinals, had his fate settled in the first inning when Ken Griffey singled and Joe Morgan homered. Griffey rapped a round-tripper off reliever Tommy Moore in the sixth and George Foster hit for the circuit off Ryan Kurosaki in the ninth. [The Sporting News]
