Wes Parker was hit by a pitched ball with the bases loaded and two out in the 11th inning to force in the run that gave the Dodgers a 1-0 victory over the Giants. Don Sutton allowed only three singles in pitching the shutout. Jim Willoughby, on the mound for the Giants, retired the first two batters in the 11th before yielding singles by Tom Paciorek and Ron Cey. After walking Manny Mota, Willoughby had a two-strike count on Parker and then him with a pitch. [The Sporting News]
