Making up for his first-inning error, Bob Robertson batted in three runs with a homer and single to lead the Pirates to a 4-2 victory over the Expos. Bob Veale was the winner for the first time since July 7. Robertson's error enabled the Expos to take a 2-0 lead. However, after Willie Stargell reached base on an error in the fourth, Robertson hit his homer to tie the score. The Pirates added their winning margin in the sixth on a double by Al Oliver, a wild pitch by Mike Marshall, pass to Richie Hebner, another wild pitch allowing Oliver to score, and a single by Robertson.
