A two-run single by Jerry Royster in the eighth inning enabled the Braves to defeat the Giants, 2-1. Ed Halicki, pitching for the Giants, allowed only one hit until Biff Pocoroba led off the Braves' eighth with the single. Barry Bonnell also singled and, after a sacrifice by Jamie Easterly, Royster came through with his deciding hit. The Giants, who were stopped on a five-game winning streak, scored in their half of the eighth on a double by Vic Harris and single by Bill Madlock.
