- Tom Griffin would pitch a 3 hit shutout as the Astros beat the Cardinals 9-0
- This would be Griffin's 3rd, and last win of the season. Tom would only make two more starts in 1975 before being shut down for the rest of the season.
- Big Cliff Johnson would go 2 for 5 in the game with a homer and 4 RBI's.
- This is Johnson's RC, and is located right beneath Steve Garvey's card in my binder.
- Elsewhere, Johnny Bench would go 5 for 5 and drive in a run as the Reds beat the Cubs 11-3.
- Interesting thought about the Reds batting order that day: George Foster actually batted 8th that day. All those years of big power and average numbers and I could never have imagined that he'd be batting before the pitcher....ever.
