With one big inning in each game, the Cardinals swept a twi-night doubleheader with the Expos, 5-4 and 9-4, to go 2½ lengths ahead of the Phillies in the East Division race. After Mike Tyson batted in a run with an infield out in the second inning of the opener, the Cardinals erupted for four runs in the fourth. Tim McCarver walked, Jose Cruz singled and Tyson drove them home with a triple. Lou Brock was safe on an error by Pepe Frias, Tyson scoring. Brock then stole his 75th base, a new season high for the Cardinal speedster, and scored what proved to be the winning run when Ted Sizemore walked and Bake McBride singled. The Expos picked up a pair in their half and added two runs in the eighth on a single by Mike Jorgensen, triple by Bob Bailey and single by Barry Foote. Al Hrabosky saved the game, retiring the side after Ron Hunt led off with a double in the ninth.
