Curt Simmons took a no-hitter into the 9th inning as the Philadelphia-NL
Phillies bested the Pittsburgh Pirates 5 to 0 at Forbes Field.

Simmons(6-3) was simply too much for the Pittsburgh batters.  He allowed only
1 hit and 2 walks in 9 innings lowering his ERA from 2.90 to 2.51.  The
left-handed Simmons lost his no-hit bid when Monte Irvin singled with two
outs in the 9th inning.  Philadelphia-NL finished with 10 hits in the
victory.  

The losing pitcher was Billy Pierce(1-7).  He surrendered 7 hits and 7 walks
in 6 innings.  'Simmons gave us exactly what we needed tonight.' Mark
McGonigle said. 'When he threw the fastball he threw it for strikes.  They
were really fooled by his change.  Most of the time he had them chasing it.'
