Montreal 2, San Diego 1: Gary Waselewski allowed just two hits, while Bob Bailey doubled, singled and walked in four trips to the plate and scored both Expos runs.

California 5, Seattle 1: Sandy Alomar had two hits, two runs, two RBIs and two steals and Jay Johnstone went 4-for-5 with two doubles and two RBIs for the Angels. Jim McGlothlin allowed one run on six hits in eight innings for the win.
