Bench Puts Reds On Top In League
The 21 year old All Star John Bench slammed a three run homer to lift the Reds 4 2 over St Louis and move ahead of Los Angeles by half a game. Bench and Lee May contributed key hits as Cincinnati built a 4 1 lead before holding on. Other NL action saw Atlanta beat Chicago 3 1, San Francisco edge New York 7 6 in 11, and San Diego win 1 0 in 10 over Montreal. In the AL California shut out Baltimore 2 0 and Detroit down Seattle 7 4. Bench, hitting .325, scored on May’s double in the fourth. Jackson preserved the win by getting Vic Davalillo to hit into a double play and retiring the Cardinals in the ninth. Los Angeles stranded bases loaded in the eighth after tying the game on Wills’ RBI.
