Ken Reitz batted in three runs, but that was not enough for the Giants, who lost to the Cubs, 5-3. Rick Monday homered for the Cubs in the first inning. After Reitz singled with the bases loaded in the sixth to plate two runs and put the Giants ahead, 3-2, the Cubs came back with three in their half.
