Dusty Baker slugged a pair of homers and Steve Garvey and Gary Thomasson also clouted round-trippers as the Dodgers halted their three-game losing streak with a 7-3 decision over the Cubs, who were stopped on a five-game winning skein. Baker drove in four runs with homers to help Burt Hooton to his third straight victory. Dave Kingman counted his 24th circuit clout. [The Sporting News]
