Steve Garvey drove in three runs with a homer and Bill Russell added three RBIs with a triple and two singles as the Dodgers romped over the Giants, 10-3. Garvey's homer, after Davey Lopes singled and Russell was safe on an error in the first inning, was his 22nd of season, representing a career high for the Dodgers' first baseman, who hit 21 in 1974.
