A four-run rally in the fourth inning triggered the Dodgers to an 8-2 thumping of the Mets, ending a five-game losing streak. Reggie Smith started the Dodgers' big inning with a one-out single and, after Ron Cey walked, a double by Steve Garvey scored both runners. Rick Monday followed with a triple and scored on a sacrifice fly by Steve Yeager.
