Atlanta 13 at Chicago 3
-The Cubs have allowed 51 runs in their last four games – all at Wrigley. They called up Joe Coleman (0-3, 5.52) to start today as the staff is tired from getting beat up so much. Cubs pitchers were still forced to toss another 175 pitches in this one. Eight of nine Braves starters had at least two runs and/or two RBI’s. Marty Perez (7), Chris Chambliss (8) and Rowland Office (4) all homered for Atlanta.

Cincinnati 2 at St. Louis 1
-The Reds have won seven in a row as Gary Nolan (13-10, 3.65) goes the distance for the win. Reggie Smith (30) homered with two outs in the 9th to break up his shutout bid. Johnny Bench launched home run #32 for the Reds
New York 4 at Los Angeles 5
-The Dodgers answer a four-run Met’ 3rd with four of their own in the 4th inning. Burt Hooton (9-13, 3.65) earned the win and Craig Swan (5-15, 3.97) took another loss
Philadelphia 8 at San Diego 1

Montreal 4 at San Francisco 0
-Bill Lee (16-10, 2.53) tosses his fifth shutout of the season as the Expos end an eight game slide. Larry Parrish hit his 15th home run and drove in three.

Minnesota 6 at Milwaukee 5 (10)
-The Brewers rally from 5-1 down in the 7th but lose in the 10th on Larry Milbourne’s RBI double. The Twins take 3 of 5 in this series that was extended by make up games
Boston 2 at Chicago 4
-Jerry Koosman (17-5, 2.84) strikes out ten in a complete game victory as Chicago scores three in the 7th off Dick Drago (8-3 2.59) to hand Boston their fifth loss in six games
Baltimore 7 at Texas 4
-It was a matchup of surprising aces but it would be no pitchers dual as the O’s hang a seven spot on Stan Perzanowski (17-3, 2.52) in the 3rd which was more than enough for Wayne Garland (14-5, 2.53) to earn the win. Ken Singleton is now batting .372 as he had three hits and another game winning RBI
