The Cubs broke a 1-1 tie with a four-run outburst in the fifth inning and defeated the Expos, 5-4. Vic Harris tripled and scored when Tim Foli threw poorly to the plate on a grounder by Bill Bonham, who reached second on the error. Don Kessinger, Jerry Morales and Billy Williams followed with singles to produce the next two runs before Jose Cardenal doubled to drive in what proved to be the deciding tally. The Expos rallied for two runs in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
