The Giants whitewashed the Mets, 3-0, behind the seven-hit pitching of Bob Knepper. Frisco took a 1-0 lead in the second inning when Darrell Evans walked, stole second, went to third on a groundout and scored on a single by Rich Murray. In the fourth frame, Jack Clark singled and Evans followed with a homer. The Jacket Day crowd of 44,910 was the first sellout at Shea Stadium in two years. [The Sporting News]
