Oliver Destroys Giants With Grand Slam In San Francisco
Al Oliver powered the Pirates past the Giants 14-5 in San Francisco with a two-run homer and a grand slam after a slow stretch. Milt May added a three-run shot as Pittsburgh raced to a large early lead while other NL games saw Reds edge Mets, Cardinals top Padres, and Cubs beat Dodgers. Oliver credited a fastball-driven breakout, while May called his inside-the-park homer a tough moment.
