The Cardinals, who ended the 1976 season with three straight shutout losses in Pittsburgh, gained revenge by defeating the Pirates, 8-7, to complete a sweep of the opening three-game series. Bake McBride smashed a two-run homer for the Cards in the second inning and drove in what proved to be the winning run with a single in the fourth. Clay Carroll gained the decision in relief, but rookie righthander John Urrea saved the game in his debut, allowing only one hit in the last 2 2/3 innings.
