Scoring in each of the last five innings, the Dodgers pulled away from the Cubs to gain a 9-5 victory and end a three-game losing streak. Reliever Charlie Hough, inserted into the contest to protect a 5-4 lead, was more effective at bat than on the mound. The veteran knuckleballer singled and scored in the seventh inning and hit an RBI double in the eighth.
