| A homer by Steve Garvey snapped a 1-1 tie in the seventh inning as the Dodgers clipped the Reds, 3-1. Joe Ferguson batted in the Dodgers' first run with a sacrifice fly in the second. The Reds' run came in their half on a pass to Fred Norman with the bases loaded. After Garvey's deciding homer, the Dodgers added an insurance run on a sacrifice fly by Davey Lopes in the eighth.
