Taking advantage of Balor Moore's wildness, the Pirates scored five runs on only one hit in the third inning and defeated the Expos, 5-1. Moore walked Gene Alley, hit Nelson Briles with a pitch and passed Gene Clines and Rennie Stennett to force in the first run. After Al Oliver popped up, Willie Stargell walked to produce the second run. Manny Sanguillen hit a sacrifice fly to make it 3-0 and Richie Hebner then singled for the only hit of the inning to drive in the Pirates' final pair. [The Sporting News]
