Completing the three-game series sweep, the Dodgers stopped the Pirates, 2-0. The Dodgers scored in the sixth inning on a homer by Steve Garvey and added an insurance marker in the eighth on singles by Ron Cey, Gary Thomasson and Bill Russell. Bob Welch yielded just three singles in 8 2/3 innings before giving way to Steve Howe, who retired Willie Stargell for the final out. [The Sporting News]
