The Expos snapped a 2-2 tie with three runs in the ninth inning and defeated the Giants, 5-2. The Giants' runs came on homers by Ed Goodson and Dave Kingman. In the ninth, Tim Foli singled for the Expos, took second on a sacrifice and scored the tie-breaking run on a single by Ron Hunt. Ron Woods drove in Hunt with a double and then crossed the plate himself on a pair of wild pitches by Randy Moffitt. [The Sporting News]
