Aided by 10 bases on balls, including three by reliever Don DeMola in a four-run fifth, the Reds coasted to a 9-1 victory over the Expos. Winner Gary Nolan and reliever Clay Carroll teamed for a 10-hitter.

The Reds' fifth included a walk to Darrel Chaney forcing in the first run of the inning. Pinch-hitter Dan Driessen singled in two more off Chuck Taylor and the final tally came on Ken Griffey's sacrifice fly off Fred Scherman. Pete Rose led the Reds with three hits but also made two errors, including a boot of Gary Carter's grounder, enabling Pepe Mangual to score the Expos' run in the third. [The Sporting News]
