The Dodgers snapped a six-game losing streak, their longest of the year, as Al Downing, who won only five games for Oakland and Milwaukee last season, coasted to his 11th triumph in an 11-3 victory over the Giants. After the Dodgers batted around for four runs in the first and increased their lead to 6-0 with two more in the second, Bobby Bonds hit a three-run homer in the third for all of San Francisco's runs.
