Scattering seven hits, Ed Whitson pitched the Giants' first shutout since July 30, 1979, beating the Cubs, 3-0. The Giants scored all their runs in the sixth inning. Larry Herndon opened with a double and came home on a single by Darrell Evans. After two out, singles by Rennie Stennett, Johnnie LeMaster and Whitson added a pair of insurance tallies.
