Having broken Babe Ruth's career record for homers, Hank Aaron sat on the bench and watched the Braves lose to the Dodgers, 9-2. Carl Morton got off to a wild start for the Braves, walking three batters to pave the way for three Dodger runs on a single by Willie Crawford and sacrifice fly by Ron Cey. The Dodgers put the game out of the Braves' reach with two more runs in the third on singles by Joe Ferguson and Crawford, a sacrifice fly by Steve Garvey and single by Bill Russell. Davey Johnson homered for the Braves.
