Mike Marshall's relief magic failed when the Phillies rallied for four runs in the eighth inning to defeat the Dodgers, 5-2. Joe Ferguson batted in the Dodgers' runs with a double in the sixth before the Phillies counted once in the seventh on a double by Willie Montanez and single by Del Unser. Tommy Hutton opened the eighth with a single and Alan Bannister, running for him, took third on a single by Tony Taylor.

Marshall then relieved Don Sutton and was greeted with a single by Dave Cash, driving in Bannister to tie the score. When Larry Bowa bunted, Marshall threw wildly to third trying for a forceout, and Taylor scored. Mike Schmidt plated Cash with a sacrifice fly and Montanez hit his second double of the game to drive in Bowa with the final run. [The Sporting News]
