After jumping on Claude Osteen for three runs in the first inning, the Expos waited until the last two stanzas before scoring five more times to defeat the Astros, 8-3. In the first, a single by Ron Hunt, a sacrifice, single by Willie Davis, double by Bob Bailey and single by Hal Breeden gave the Expos their early start. The Astros narrowed their deficit with two runs in the fifth, but the Expos pulled away in the eighth.
