With Mike Marshall continuing his ironman work, appearing in relief in both games, the Dodgers swept a doubleheader with the Expos, 4-1 and 5-3. Tommy John, who gained his 13th victory in the lidlifter, yielded the Expos' run in the first inning on a double by Ron Hunt, a wild pitch and error by Rick Auerbach. Willie Crawford doubled home the tying run in the fourth and scored the go-ahead run on a single by Joe Ferguson. The Dodgers added another run on a sacrifice fly by Ron Cey in the sixth. Marshall replaced John with one man on base and one out in the eighth and gained his 12th save. The Dodgers clinched the verdict with a run in the ninth on a double by Crawford and single by Steve Garvey.

In the nightcap, Cey drove in two runs with a pair of singles to help the Dodgers take a 4-0 lead before the Expos loaded the bases with none out against Doug Rau in the seventh. Marshall allowed one run on a single by Hunt before retiring the side. In the ninth, Willie Davis smashed a two-run homer for the Expos, but Marshall bore down to record his 13th save.
