The Dodgers piled up nine runs in the first two innings and breezed to a 13-3 victory over the Giants. In the opening frame, Davey Lopes and Willie Crawford walked and Steve Garvey singled for one run before Ron Cey added three more with a homer. Bobby Murcer hit for the circuit with a man on base in the Giants' half, but the Dodgers brushed that aside with a five-run outburst in the second, two scoring on a bases-loaded single by Joe Ferguson.
