IN THE NEWS :Bill Bonham (108)and the Cubs, in setting a ML record. No pitcher has ever started a game by allowing seven straight hits. Dave Cash leads off with a single, and Larry Bowa matches it. Garry Maddox homers over the LF fence. Greg Luzinski singles, and Jay Johnstone and Tommy Hutton follow with doubles to make it 50. Mike Schmidt then hits his 22nd homer to finally drive Bonham out of the game. His replacement, Ken Crosby (making his ML debut) gives up a single to Johnny Oates for the 8th straight hit. Dick Ruthven lays down a sac bunt for the first out, but three walks, two hits and a balk make it 100. As historian Lyle Spatz notes, the Phils last scored 10 runs in a frame on August 13, 1948 . Schmidt adds a 2nd homer to help push the final to 135.
Red Sox pitcher Roger Moret , scheduled to pitch today, crashes his car in Connecticut at 4:30 a.m. He's okay and starts, but his Red Sox lose to the Orioles and Jim Palmer , 30.

IN THE NEWS :Ed Halicki records a somewhat controversial no-hitter in beating the Mets 60 in the 2nd game. The 6'7" righthander strikes out 10 Mets to improve his record to 810. Craig Swan takes the loss. The controversy arise when Rusty Staub hits a ball off Halecki's leg, which caroms to the 2B Derrel Thomas , who picks it then drops it. Official scorer Joe Sargis rules it an E-4. NY columnist Dick Young , watching the game on TV, writes that it should be a hit and accuses Sargis of subscribing to the theory that the first hit of a starter should be a 'good one.' The no-hitter stands but UPI's Sargis loses his job as a sometime scorer.

IN THE NEWS :Cliff Johnson hits a home run in the top of the 11th for his 6th in six consecutive games, pushing his team to a 43 lead. Unfortunately, the game is called due to rain in the bottom half of the inning, and the score reverts to what it was in the 10th, thus erasing Johnson's home run. It deprives Johnson of becoming only the 2nd National League player to hit six home runs in six consecutive games.
