Steve Garvey scored two runs and Davey Lopes homered to give the Dodgers a 3-1 lead over the Cubs before the game was suspended because of darkness after 7½ innings. The contest was completed prior to the next day's regularly-scheduled meeting of the clubs.

Don Sutton, pitching for the Dodgers, worked out of trouble in the second when a double by Rick Monday, two walks and a sacrifice fly produced the Cubs' lone run. The Dodgers tied the score with doubles by Garvey and Ron Cey in the fourth. Lopes hit his homer in the fifth. Garvey doubled again in the sixth and counted on a single by Ivan DeJesus.
