. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A wild pitch by Mike Marshall and throwing error by John Hale helped the Expos score three runs in the 14th inning to defeat the Dodgers, 5-3. Davey Lopes stole three bases before his record string of 38 successful thefts in a row was snapped when the Dodgers' speedster was thrown out by Gary Carter, Expos' catcher.

Carter walked to open the 14th, took third on a single by Pete Mackanin and scored on Marshall's wild pitch to break a 2-2 tie. After Jose Morales walked, Pepe Frias lifted a foul fly to Hale and when the right fielder uncorked a wild throw to third, Mackanin scored. Jim Lyttle then doubled to drive in Morales.
