A five-run explosion in the fourth inning carried the Cubs to a 5-4 triumph over the Pirates. Trailing, 3-0, the Cubs loaded the bases on singles by Mike Vail and Manny Trillo and a walk to Davey Johnson. Starter Jerry Reuss then committed a balk, allowing Vail to score. After Tim Blackwell walked to reload the sacks, Ed Whitson replaced Reuss.
