He went 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Don Gullett was the winner. He's now 7-3. The loser was 28-year old right-handed pitcher Bert Blyleven.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Dave Concepcion? The Cincinnati 1976 shortstop had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Reds on top, 4-2. For the game, Concepcion had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Winning is great," Concepcion said. "It's always just guys picking each other up -- if not me, then the next guy."
