Dave Cash collected two doubles and two singles to lead the Phillies' 12-hit attack in an 8-1 victory over the Mets. Steve Carlton limited the Mets to one hit with their lone run coming on a walk to John Stearns and double by Felix Millan in the sixth inning.

By that time, however, the Phillies already had four runs on the scoreboard, two of them crossing the plate on a double by Cash. Tony Taylor bunted safely in the sixth inning for the 1,000th hit of his major league career. [The Sporting News]
