Ernie McAnally doled out six hits and pitched the Expos to a 4-1 victory over the Pirates, who were able to retain their 5½-game lead in the East division because the Cardinals also lost to the Cubs. The Expos began the scoring with a run in the first inning on singles by Ron Hunt and Rusty Staub around a sacrifice by Boots Day.
