A three-run explosion in the 11th inning lifted the Giants to a 6-3 triumph over the Dodgers. The score was 3-3 when Jeff Leonard began the 11th with a walk, stole second and scored on a single by Johnnie LeMaster. Dave Bergman then hit a two-run homer. The Dodgers had tied the game with two runs in the bottom of the ninth on run-scoring singles by Mike Scioscia and pinch-hitter Rick Monday. Each team scored in the 10th on bases-empty homers by the Giants' Jack Clark and the Dodgers' Steve Garvey. [The Sporting News] |
