Leading off with a homer, Bake McBride ignited a three-run getaway in the first inning that enabled the Phillies to defeat the Dodgers, 4-2. After McBride's blow, Larry Bowa doubled and scored when Bill North let the ball get past him in center field.

Garry Maddox then singled, stole second and scored on a single by Richie Hebner, who also accounted for the Phillies' last run with a homer in the sixth. The Dodgers had round-trippers by Ron Cey and Bill Russell for their markers. [The Sporting News]
