Ending his personal three-game losing streak, Don Sutton allowed only two hits and pitched the Dodgers to a 5-0 victory over the Astros. The Dodgers were held hitless by Jerry Reuss until the fifth inning when they broke away with three runs on a double by Wes Parker, single by Chris Cannizzaro, double by Bill Russell, single by Sutton and sacrifice fly by Bobby Valentine.
