Breaking an 0-for-13 slump, Jay Johnstone smashed a two-run homer in the fifth inning to enable Steve Carlton to pitch the Phillies to a 3-2 victory over the Astros. Carlton helped himself by hitting a single. After a forceout by Garry Maddox, Johnstone rapped his round-tripper to erase the Astros' 2-1 lead.
