The Expos, who scored their first two runs on homers by Hal Breeden and Bob Bailey, broke a tie with two more runs in the ninth inning to defeat the Cardinals, 4-2. Pinch-hitter Barry Foote led off with a single and gave way to Larry Lintz, who took third on a single by Ron Hunt. Tim Foli followed with a single to score Lintz with the tie-breaking run and Ken Singleton added an insurance tally with another single. [The Sporting News]
