Yielding only two hits, Don Sutton pitched the Dodgers to a 4-0 victory over the Braves. Maury Wills tripled in the first inning for his first hit in 19 times at bat this season and scored on an infield out by Bill Buckner. Sutton worked with that slim lead until the ninth when the Dodgers iced the game with three runs, two scoring on a single by Manny Mota.
