Ed Goodson smashed two homers and Gary Matthews hit one to pace the Giants' attack in a 7-3 victory over the Cubs. Goodson's first blow and a circuit clout by Billy Williams for the Cubs helped fashion a 2-2 tie before the Giants erupted for five runs in the seventh inning.

Walks to Dave Rader and Dave Kingman, a wild pitch and sacrifice fly by Tito Fuentes produced the tie-breaking tally. Garry Maddox hit a run-scoring single. Goodson and Matthews then homered in succession. [The Sporting News]
