Dale Berra, son of Hall of Famer Yogi Berra, singled in the 11th inning and drove in Al Oliver to bring the Pirates a 5-4 victory over the Phillies. Oliver singled and Duffy Dyer also singled before Berra delivered his game-winning hit. Led by Mike Schmidt, who drove in three runs with a homer and single, the Phillies led three times at 1-0, 2-1 and 4-2, but the Pirates came back to tie the score each time.
