Becoming a 20-game winner for the first time in his 11-year major league career, Don Sutton pitched the Dodgers to a 3-1 victory over the Giants. Bobby Murcer stole home to account for the Giants' run in the second inning. Bill Buckner doubled to score Kevin Pasley with the tying tally in the third and then singled to drive in Glenn Burke with the go-ahead run in the seventh. Burke singled for a Dodger insurance run in the ninth.
