Bench Sees Luck Split Blue and Gullett in Reds Rally
Johnny Bench says luck is the only difference between Vida Blue and Don Gullett as the Reds beat the Cubs 8-2. Gullett carried a no hitter into the eighth before Cleo James lined an opposite field double. Rose's late dive kept the bid alive but couldn't save it. Rose, Foster, and James fueled the Cincinnati attack while other NL results moved San Francisco, Los Angeles, St. Louis, Houston, and Philadelphia in tight pennant races.
