Homers by Darrell Evans and Jack Clark, plus two-run doubles by Marc Hill and Willie McCovey, carried the Giants to a 7-3 victory over the Mets. Evans and Clark hit their round-trippers in succession in the first inning. Hill rapped a bases-loaded double in the sixth and McCovey's double accounted for two of the Giants' three runs in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
