The relief pitching of Jim Brewer, who yielded only one hit in the last 2 2/3 innings, saved the Dodgers' 5-4 victory over the Braves. Don Sutton, who started for the Dodgers, helped himself with two run-scoring singles. After Sutton drove in the first run in the second, Willie Crawford singled in the fourth, Jim Lefebvre was safe on an error, Billy Grabarkewitz tripled and Sutton singled. The Dodgers added what proved to be the winning run in the seventh on a triple by Maury Wills and sacrifice fly by Willie Davis.
