Montreal 6, San Diego 5: The Expos plated two runs in the bottom of the ninth, with Coco Laboy driving home the winner with his second RBI of the game. Ollie Brown had a three-run homer in the seventh to put the Padres on top in what had been a pitchers duel, but the Expos used back-to-back triples by Rusty Staub and Bob Bailey in the eighth to pull to within one. Dick Radatz gets the win in relief, and Tommy Sisk the loss.

Montreal 9, San Diego 2: The Expos scored in five consecutive innings, while Gary Waslewski allowed five hits and two runs in seven innings for the win. Montreal got homers from Don Bosch and John Bateman, while Bob Bailey drew a pair of bases-loaded walks. Nate Colbert homered for the Padres. John Podres took the loss.

Chicago 4, Philadelphia 1: The White Sox scored three runs in the first and got seven innings of seven-hit, one-run pitching from Gary Peters. Buddy Bradford tripled for two runs and Don Pavletich doubled in another in the first off loser Grant Jackson. Walt Williams and Dick Allen exchanged homers later in the game. Dan Osinski and Wilbur Wood each retired all three men they faced to end the game for the Sox. Pavletich was injured (three days) and will be replaced on the roster by Carlos May; Pavletich is eligible to return when rosters expand.

Player of the Day: Bob Bailey, Montreal
