| Back in action after four games on the bench, Joe Hague smashed two homers to account for three runs before the Cardinals exploded for five more in the seventh inning to defeat the Expos, 8-5. A single by Ted Simmons and four walks forced in the Cards' first two runs to break a 3-3 tie. Jerry Reuss then helped himself to victory with a two-run double and scored the final run on a single by Lou Brock. [The Sporting News] |
