He popped a two-run clout over the fence (his 15th of the season) in the 1st inning and doubled bringing in two baserunners in the 2nd inning. Cincinnati banged out 16 on the night. The victory went to Goltz(14-7) who went the distance allowing 3 runs. Tommy John(8-11) was charged with the loss. He was knocked around pretty good, giving up 7 runs in 2 innings.

AUGUST 18 First baseman Steve Garvey cracked 2 homeruns as the LosAngeles Dodgers staged a dramatic comeback over the Cincinnati Reds by a score of 7 to 6 at Riverfront Stadium. Los Angeles had the game winning rally in the 9th inning when they tallied 4 runs on 2 hits. The critical plate appearance was by Garvey who deflated the crowd as he caught a hold of a bad pitch for a Grand Slam homerun (his 27th of the season). Despite scoring in 5 separate innings, Cincinnati could not get the win. Bob Welch(6-5) got the win allowing 2 runs in 2 innings. Terry Forster earned the save, his 17th. Joe Sambito(3-5) was the losing pitcher in relief. 'The only way this one could have been better', said Welch, 'was if we had played it at home.'
