Ted Simmons and Ted Sizemore each singled home a run in the first inning and Lynn McGlothen made the lead stand up with a four-hit mound effort as the Cardinals snapped the Reds' nine-game winning streak, 2-1. The Reds got their only run in the top of the first on Pete Rose's double, an infield hit by Ken Griffey and sacrifice fly by Joe Morgan. Willie Davis, returning to the St. Louis lineup after a short absence because of alimony problems, went 4-for-4. [The Sporting News]
