In a close game it was the Cincinnati Reds 6, the St. Louis Cardinals 4 at

hits. Dave Concepcion led off and keyed the rally when he delivered a

single. Merv Rettenmund stepped up next and he drew a walk. After an out

was recorded, Cesar Geronimo stepped up to the plate and he lashed a single

bringing in a run. After another out, Pete Rose came to the plate and ripped

a base-knock scoring another run. Rose took second on the throw. Joe Morgan

stepped into the box and was walked intentionally to load the bases. Johnny

Bench did his part to keep things going and drew a walk scoring the final run

of the inning. Cincinnati had 13 hits for the night while St. Louis had 7.



Clay Kirby(2-1) got credit for the victory, pitching 7 innings and allowing 3
