Davey Lopes stole five bases to tie the N. L. record set by Dan McGann of the New York Giants in 1904 as the Dodgers defeated the Cardinals, 3-0. Don Sutton pitched a shutout, scattering seven hits. Lopes' thievery set up the Dodgers' first two runs. After hitting a single in the third inning, Lopes stole second, continued to third on a throwing error by Cardinal catcher Ted Simmons and scored on a sacrifice fly by Steve Garvey. Lopes singled in the fifth and swiped both second and third. The Dodgers then loaded the bases and Joe Ferguson walked to force in Lopes. Their last run counted on a double by Tom Paciorek and single by Lopes in the eighth.
