Sparked by Hank Aaron's tie-breaking double, the Braves scored four runs in the sixth inning to defeat the Giants, 6-2. Ralph Garr tripled and Darrell Evans singled for the Braves' initial run in the first and Davey Johnson homered for another run in the fifth. The Giants came up with matching tallies, but they had no answer to the Braves' outburst in the sixth. Garr and Evans started things going with singles. Dusty Baker forced Garr, but Aaron followed with his double, scoring Evans. After a walk to Mike Lum, Johnson singled to drive in Baker. Johnny Oates completed the scoring with a single, plating Aaron and Lum.
