Steve Garvey hit the first grand slam of his major league career to highlight the Dodgers' 12-1 rout of the Cardinals. Garvey had four hits in five trips and drove in a total of five runs, while Ron Cey accounted for four RBIs.

Tom Underwood, making his first appearance with the Cards following his acquisition from the Phillies, was lifted in the fourth inning after two walks and a single by Bill Russell loaded the bases. After Clay Carroll relieved, one run scored on an error by Keith Hernandez and another was forced in with a pass to Cey before Garvey drilled his homer. [The Sporting News]
