The undefeated Reds recorded their eighth straight victory, 4-1, over the winless Braves behind the five-hit pitching of Frank Pastore. The Reds scored all their runs in the fourth inning on a pair of two-run homers. Dave Concepcion led off with a single and scored on a homer by Dan Driessen. Johnny Bench then walked and Ray Knight followed with a round-tripper.
