Batting twice, Dusty Baker hit two singles in the seventh inning when the Dodgers scored five runs to defeat the Expos, 5-1. Baker and Steve Yeager singled and Tommy John was safe on an error, loading the bases to start the stanza.

Lee Lacy struck out, but Bill Russell rapped a two-run single. Reggie Smith walked to reload the sacks. After Ron Cey struck out, Steve Garvey and Manny Mota drew passes, each forcing in a run, before Baker came up for a second time and singled to drive in the final tally. [The Sporting News]
