Helping himself with a two-run single, Carl Morton gained credit for the Braves' 7-3 victory over the Mets before a Photo Album Day crowd of 50,043. After the Mets took a 2-0 lead in the first inning on singles by Del Unser, Felix Millan, Joe Torre and Ed Kranepool, the Braves struck back with four runs in the second.

Dusty Baker singled and scored on a double by Vic Correll. Walks to Larvell Blanks and Bob Beall loaded the bases. Morton then hit his two-run single, scoring Correll and Blanks. Ralph Garr followed with a single to drive in Beall. [The Sporting News]
