Tom Seaver retired 10 batters on strikeouts at Three Rivers Stadium as the
Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Portland Beavers 6 to 2.
Seaver(1-0) looked very much in control throughout the day. He surrendered
only 3 hits and 5 walks in 8 innings. Pittsburgh ended up with 10 hits for
the game while Portland had 3.
The loss was charged to Luis Tiant(0-1). He surrendered 8 hits and 2 walks in
6 innings. Seaver was pleased with his performance. He noted, 'I had good
zip on my pitches. Just as important, my location was right on. The fans
really got into the game too - that always helps me. Now, if I can only do
that again in my next outing.'
