Jerry Reuss pitched a four-hitter to lead the Dodgers to a 6-1 victory over the Braves. The Dodgers broke game the open in the fifth inning when singles by Dusty Baker, Joe Ferguson and Pedro Guerrero loaded the bases and Derrel Thomas followed with a two-run double. Guerrero scored on a squeeze bunt by Reuss. Bob Horner homered for the Braves' run.
