Mike Schmidt hit his 35th and 36th homers of the season, plus a single, and drove in four runs to lead the Phillies to a 13-7 victory over the Cubs. Dick Allen joined in the attack with a homer and single, batting in three runs.

Steve Carlton allowed only two runs on a homer by George Mitterwald while pitching the first eight innings for the Phillies. Randy Lerch relieved in the ninth and was roughed up for five runs, including a grand-slam homer by pinch-hitter Tim Hosley. [The Sporting News]
