Joe Torre's 11th-inning homer, followed by Jack Heidemann's single that scored Bake McBride, gave the Cardinals a 4-2 decision over the Dodgers. The loss went to Charlie Hough, while Orlando Pena, in relief of Sonny Siebert, drew the victory. Back-to-back doubles by Ted Sizemore and Reggie Smith accounted for the first St. Louis run in the third, but Jim Wynn deadlocked the issue with his 17th homer, a 400-foot blast, in the fourth. Ted Simmons doubled, stopped at third on Torre's hit and tallied on Luis Melendez' sacrifice fly to give the Cards a 2-1 lead in the sixth. In the home half, the Dodgers evened the count when Wynn singled, stole second and rambled home on Joe Ferguson's single. [The Sporting News]
