George Foster, who hit his 44th homer of the season with a man on base in the first inning, also singled in the seventh and drove in what proved to be the Reds' winning run in a 4-3 victory over the Expos. After Foster's blast in the first, the Reds added a run in the fourth on singles by Dan Driessen and Johnny Bench and a grounder by Mike Lum.
