Willie McCovey raised his career RBI total to 1,400 by driving in two runs with a double to help the Giants defeat the Cubs, 4-1. The Cubs counted their run off Ed Halicki in the second on doubles by Larry Biittner and Manny Trillo. Gary Alexander led off the Giants' third with a single, reached third on a one-out single by Derrel Thomas and scored the tying run on an infield out by Tim Foli. The Cubs then passed Bill Madlock intentionally to get at McCovey, who wrecked the strategy with a double.
