A wild throw by Vic Correll in attempting to complete a double play in the ninth inning enabled the Phillies to defeat the Braves, 1-0, behind the three-hit pitching of Steve Carlton. Jay Johnstone led off the ninth with an infield single for the Phillies' sixth hit off Carl Morton, who then suffered a spell of wildness, walking Greg Luzinski and Dick Allen to load the bases.
