Gene Garber, who replaced Larry McWilliams in the ninth inning, struck out the last two batters for his 25th save to preserve the Braves' 2-0 victory over the Reds. The Braves scored both their runs in the fifth inning. Joe Nolan walked, went to second on a sacrifice by McWilliams and stopped at third when Eddie Miller singled. After Miller stole second, Nolan scored on an infield out by Glenn Hubbard. Miller then stole home, beating the pitch to the plate by Fred Norman.
