Doug Rau yielded only three hits and pitched the Dodgers to an 8-1 victory over the Phillies. The only run off the lefthander scored in the first inning on a double by Dave Cash, a sacrifice and infield out. The Dodgers, after tying the score in their half, went ahead with two runs in the third on a wild pitch by Tom Underwood and error by Dick Allen, each with the bases loaded.

Underwood was lifted after Jim Wynn walked and Steve Garvey singled in the fifth. Ron Cey socked reliever Wayne Twitchell's first pitch for a three-run homer. John Hale knocked in the other two runs with a double in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
