Bill North went 3-for-4, stole three bases and scored two runs to spark the Giants to a 4-0 triumph over the Phillies. Doyle Alexander, pitching the first seven frames, recorded his fifth win while reducing his ERA to 1.32. North singled in the first inning to trigger a three-run rally, singled and stole second in the second and fifth frames and scored the Giants' final run in the seventh on an RBI single by Jack Clark, who also had three hits. Enos Cabell and Joe Morgan each had run-scoring doubles in the first inning and Morgan added a sacrifice fly. [The Sporting News]
