Jerry White and Jim Dwyer, batting 1-2 in the Expos' order, each collected three hits to lead the way to a 5-2 victory over the Pirates. White scored two runs. Dwyer batted in two and scored one. Dwyer accounted for his RBIs with a double in the fourth inning, putting the Expos ahead, 4-1, to pin the defeat on Dock Ellis. The loss did not affect the Pirates' lead in the East Division race.
