Ernie Banks, returning to lineup after missing 10 games because of a knee injury, smashed a homer in the second inning and singled in the fourth when the Cubs piled up six runs to defeat the Dodgers, 7-1. The Cubs' outburst in the fourth represented their biggest inning of the season.

Paul Popovich, Billy Williams, Jim Hickman, Ron Santo and Banks hit singles to produce the first three runs of the outburst. After Santo scored on a grounder by Johnny Callison, Jack Hiatt smashed a homer and crossed the plate behind Banks. [The Sporting News]
