A six-run outburst in the seventh inning lifted the Dodgers to an 8-7 triumph over the Expos. Stan Bahnsen took over the mound chores for the Expos in the seventh and walked Dusty Baker and Ron Cey. Bill Russell followed with a three-run homer. Rudy Law Smith and Steve Garvey contributed an RBI each to cap the rally. Ron LeFlore hit two homers for the Expos, his first in the National League.
