Rick Monday singled home the tie-breaking run in the fourth inning and the Dodgers went on to post a 4-2 decision over the Reds. Dusty Baker hit a solo homer in the second stanza before the Dodgers snapped a 1-1 deadlock in the fourth when Steve Garvey singled, took second on an infield out and tallied on the single by Monday. The Dodgers added two runs in the seventh on a sacrifice fly by Derrel Thomas and a run-scoring infield single by Bobby Castillo. [The Sporting News]
