The Braves tallied all their runs in the final two innings to defeat the Expos, 4-1, Earl Williams delivering the clincher, a two-run, ninth-inning homer. Montreal scored their run in the second on a walk, Larry Parrish's single and a sacrifice fly by Tim Foli, and made the lead stand up until the eighth. Cito Gaston walked and scored the tying run on Vic Correll's double. Dusty Baker followed with a pinch-hit single to send home Correll with the winning run. [The Sporting News] |
