Catching in his second game after month-long troubles with a bad back, Johnny Bench doubled in the 11th inning to pave the way for the run that gave the Reds an 8-7 victory over the Astros. After Bench's two-bagger, Rick Auerbach took over as a pinch-runner and scored the winning marker on a single by Junior Kennedy.
