The Phillies collected a homer, two triples and five doubles among 14 hits to post a 6-2 victory over the Expos. Garry Maddox, who had three hits, drove in the Phillies' initial run with a double in the first and added their second counter with a homer in the third. Manny Trillo also contributed three hits, including a triple.

Ron LeFlore rapped a triple and two singles in three trips for the Expos before muscle cramps forced him to leave the game. Rodney Scott, the Expos' second baseman, drew five straight walks to tie the modern N. L. record. [The Sporting News]
