Philadelphia pitcher Steve Carlton extended his club record winning streak to 10 with a 4 hit shutout of the Cubs, while Montreal’s Bill Stoneman blanked St. Louis 3-1 to snap Bob Gibson’s 11-game run. In Houston’s Astrodome, Fred Gladding allowed a Bill Buckner homer as the Dodgers beat the Astros 6-5. Pittsburgh topped New York 3-1, San Diego beat Cincinnati 4-1, and Atlanta edged San Francisco 4-3 in the first game of a twi-nighter, with the nightcap rained out.

Finally Keithsburg's Dillavou logged two wins in Open League play, including a no-hitter through six in the Safley's game before Durants Bachus broke it up.
