The same three players who proved a winning combination in the previous day's game starred again for the Cardinals in their second successive 2-1 victory over the Dodgers. Dave Lopes, for the second straight game, supplied the Dodgers' lone run with a homer. After his blow in the eighth inning tied the score at 1-1, Bake McBride tripled off Mike Marshall in the ninth and Reggie Smith singled to give the victory to Al Hrabosky in relief.
