The Braves scored an unearned run in the 10th inning and won the first game of a doubleheader, 3-2, before the Dodgers came back behind the shutout pitching of Don Sutton to gain a 2-0 victory in the second game. The Braves loaded the bases in the overtime stanza of the opener when Rod Gilbreath was hit by a pitch and Jim Wynn and Willie Montanez walked. Dave May then hit a slow roller to Bill Russell, who dropped the ball before he could attempt to force Gilbreath at the plate.
