Tom Seaver(13-7) and Tony Brizzolara(1-11) locked horns in a pitcher's duel
with Seaver and the Cincinnati Reds coming out on top of the lifeless Atlanta
Braves 1 to 0.
 
Cincinnati scored the only run of the game in the bottom of the 6th inning.
Atlanta threatened in the 9th but Cincinnati was able to put down the rally.
 
Seaver got help from Doug Bair who earned his 14th save.  Bobby Cox was
subdued when questioned after the game, 'Sure, this kind of loss takes a
while to get over, but heck, we're all professionals.  We've been through
this many times - it's the nature of the game.  We'll be fine - as for me -
I'll be ready to go again tomorrow!'
