Pinch-hitting with the bases loaded in the 10th inning, Jim Fregosi drew a walk, forcing in Steve Brye, to give the Pirates a 4-3 victory over the Cubs. Brye led off the frame with a double and Willie Stargell was passed intentionally. After Rennie Stennett flied out, Ed Ott drew a pass to fill the sacks and Fregosi then walked on five pitches from Bruce Sutter. The Cubs also scored on a pass with the bases loaded when they rallied for three runs in the eighth inning to tie the score.
