Billy Williams singled in the first and doubled in the second to mark a pair of two-run innings by the Cubs, who went on to defeat the Braves, 7-2. In the first, Don Kessinger walked and Jose Cardenal, Williams and Andre Thornton singled to start the Cubs' scoring. Rick Reuschel walked in the second and raced home with two out when Darrell Evans threw wildly on a grounder by Cardenal. Williams then hit his double to drive in Cardenal. Evans made two more errors in the game, including a boot of a pickoff throw that allowed two runs to cross the plate in the seventh inning.
