Boots Day hit his first homer since August 23, 1971, driving in two runs in the first inning, to start the Expos off to a 9-6 victory over the Giants. After Day's drive, the Expos added two more runs in the first, loading the bases and scoring on grounders by John Boccabella and Bob Bailey.

Day also collected a single and double, driving in another run with his two-bagger in the sixth. Mike Jorgensen rapped four singles in five trips and batted in two runs. Chris Speier had three RBIs for the Giants. [The Sporting News]
