| A four-run uprising in the third inning started the Giants off to an 8-1 victory over the Reds behind the six-hit pitching of Ed Whitson. Bill North opened the third with a double and scored on a two-bagger by Darrell Evans. A single by Larry Herndon plated Evans and Jim Wohlford followed with a double, driving in Herndon. Rennie Stennett capped the rally with a single, scoring Wohlford. [The Sporting News] |
