Shocked when Mike Jorgensen hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning, the Cardinals lost to the Expos, 3-2, and had their backs against the wall in the battle with the Pirates for the East Divison title. Mike Torrez, who started for the Expos against Bob Gibson, fell behind when Reggie Smith homered in the fourth inning, but the Expos pulled even with a double by Bob Bailey and infield outs by Ron Fairly and Willie Davis in the sixth. The speed of Bake McBride then enabled the Cardinals to regain the lead in the seventh. Joe Torre walked and was forced by McBride, who stole both second and third before scoring on a single by Mike Tyson.
