Rich Gale's first decision in a Giants' uniform was a three-hitter as the former Kansas City hurler beat the Reds, 6-1. A first-inning RBI single by Reggie Smith, solo homer by Milt May in the second and singles by Chili Davis, Duane Kuiper and Jack Clark and a double steal by Kuiper and Clark, accounting for two more runs in the third, sent the Reds to their sixth straight setback.
