Benefiting from six Los Angeles errors, the Astros moved within one game of first place in the N.L. West by edging the Dodgers, 5-4. The Astros snapped a 3-3 tie in the seventh inning on a leadoff walk to Joe Morgan, two-base error by L.A. first sacker Steve Garvey on a grounder by Jose Cruz, intentional walk to Cesar Cedeno, sacrifice fly by Art Howe and RBI single by Gary Woods. Joe Sambito recorded his 14th save by inducing pinch-hitter Mickey Hatcher to bounce into a double play in the ninth.
