Robertson Powers Pirates To Rain Delayed Wins And First
Pirates outfielder Bob Robertson ended a 21 at bat slump with three hits and four RBI as Pittsburgh beat San Francisco 4 1 and 9 7 in a rain delayed doubleheader to move a half game ahead of the idle Mets. Giusti and Briles combined for the opener win while Robertson drove in runs and kept the rally alive in the nightcap. Billy Williams marked his 34th birthday with two Chicago homers in a 10 1 Cubs win over San Diego.
