Dock Ellis made his first start since pitching a no-hitter against the Padres June 12 and added 3 1/3 hitless innings to his string before the Dodgers broke the righthander's spell to defeat the Pirates, 4-0. Manny Mota singled for the first hit off Ellis and scored on singles by Willie Davis and Wes Parker. The Dodgers added a pair in the sixth when Davis singled, Andy Kosco doubled and Billy Grabarkewitz singled. Orlando Pena, in relief of Ellis, yielded the Dodgers' final tally in the seventh.
