Steve Carlton set an N. L. record for most career one-hitters, racking up his sixth while pitching the Phillies to a 7-0 victory over the Cardinals. Ted Simmons, leading off the second inning, singled for the only hit allowed by the lefthander, who beat the Cardinals for the 25th time in 33 career decisions since being traded away by the St. Louis club in 1972.

John Fulgham matched Carlton in shutout pitching until the seventh inning when the Phillies scored three runs on a double by Greg Luzinski, pass to Bob Boone, triple by pinch-hitter Del Unser and wild throw by Tommy Herr on the relay from the outfield. Garry Maddox knocked in two runs with a single in the eighth and Boone capped the scoring with a two-run homer. [The Sporting News]
