Completing the three-game series sweep, the Phillies edged the Giants, 5-4. The Phils trailed, 4-3, going into the bottom of the ninth but tied the score on singles by Bake McBride, Larry Bowa and Mike Schmidt. After an intentional walk to Greg Luzinski, pinch-hitter Jose Cardenal hit a long smash to left for a single to drive in the winning run. [The Sporting News]
