The San Francisco Giants nipped the Atlanta Braves 5 to 4 at Fulton Cnty. Stadium in a hard fought contest.

The loss was charged to Phil Niekro(13-9). Tom Austad was subdued after the ballgame, 'That one really hurts. If our guys had simply played more fundamentally sound, we could have won that one. That is what really ticks me off!'
