Two homers by Rick Monday paced the Dodgers to an 11-5 thumping of the Braves. Jim Bouton, making his first major league appearance in eight years, was the Braves' starter and loser. After breezing through the first three innings, the former Yankee was rapped for five runs in the fourth inning with Monday's first round-tripper, a three-run shot, capping the outburst.
