Game Four
The 1969 Giants open Game 4 with a 2 run first inning. With one out Ron Hunt and Willie Mays hit back to back doubles and then Willie McCovey drove Mays home with a single. Ken Henderson reach John Montefusco for a 2 run home run in the fourth and Ron Hunt added a solo shot in the 5th. The next three batters walked and although Henderson hit into a double play, another run scored. Marc Hill gets the 1978 Giants on the board with a solo HR in the 7th and Jack Clark gets them a little closer with a 2 run blast in the 8th. But Willie McCovey gets his first home run of the series with a 9th inning insurance home run and the 1969 Giants even the series with a 7-3 win.
