A first-inning homer by Davey Lopes, who hit the second pitch by Lynn McGlothen over the right field wall, triggered the Dodgers to a 6-2 victory over the Cubs. After one out in the Dodgers' first, Reggie Smith singled, Steve Garvey doubled and Ron Cey singled to add two more tallies. Lopes also drove in two other runs with a groundout in the second and single in the third. [The Sporting News]
