A loser of eight previous decisions, reliever Dale Murray gained credit for his first victory of the season when the Expos pushed the tie-breaking run across the plate in the seventh inning to defeat the Braves, 4-3. With one out, Del Unser, newly acquired from the Mets, walked and Mike Jorgensen singed. Mike Marshall came to the mound and passed Andre Thornton to load the bases. Larry Parrish then forced Thornton at second and Unser scored what proved to be the winning run.
