Pushing across a run in the top of the eighth inning, the Giants edged the Cubs, 4-3. The score was 3-3 when Jeff Leonard stroked a one-out single and reached third on a double by Milt May. After pinch-hitter Joe Morgan was walked intentionally to load the bases, pinch-swinger Jim Wohlford bounced into a forceout as Leonard crossed the plate. Greg Minton pitched the final two innings to earn his 13th save.
