Cincinnati Power To Decide NL Pennant Showdown
Cincinnati power led by Johnny Bench and Tony Perez shapes the National League championship against the Pirates in a best of five starting Saturday. Cincinnati edges Pittsburgh in homers and runs, while pitching is pitched as less decisive than power hitting. Bench leads with 45 homers and Perez adds 40, as Cincinnati aims to win in four games. Pirates counter with Dock Ellis and Luke Walker, but Cincinnati holds the edge after a strong late season run.
