San Francisco right-hander Jim Barr pitched his team to victory over the Atlanta Braves at Candlestick Park. The final score was 8-1. The Giants' win now puts them at 17-25.

Barr, the winner, is now 3-3. In 9 innings of work, he gave up 1 earned run on 3 hits, while collecting 4 Ks. He essentially shut down the Atlanta offense.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Barr told the San Francisco Chronicle.

Someone in the press gaggle was heard to blurt out, "Who are you kiddin' buddy? You guys are 8 games under .500 and in last place."

Young Dave Kingman had a standout game, going 2-3 with a 3-run shot off the immortal LHP George H Stone, pride of Rushton, Louisiana.

BOTTOM OF THE 3RD
Count: 2-1
3-RUN HOME RUN (Flyball, 9D), Distance : 365 ft
