Stargell Keeps Pace With 27th Home Run Power
Pirates star Willie Stargell, playing through a badly damaged left knee, hit his 27th homer and drove in four as Pittsburgh routed Philadelphia 14 to 4. He batted .319 with 76 RBIs in 63 games, while Jackie Hernandez and Richie Hebner added two homers apiece. The Pirates opened an 11-2 lead after three innings as Stargell extended his league lead in RBIs and continued a hot week with three extra base hits in the first three frames. Stargell suggested another knee operation could be needed at season end. Meanwhile New York swept Montreal, Atlanta topped Cincinnati, and Houston edged San Francisco in other NL games.
