A double by Ron Hunt was the key hit when the Expos scored twice in the eighth inning to beat the Phillies, 2-0, in a duel between Steve Rogers and Steve Carlton. Barry Foote led off the frame with a single and Rogers sacrificed. Hunt then hit his double to drive in Foote before scoring himself on a single by Bob Bailey. As a result, Rogers was able to end his personal six-game losing streak. The route-going performance was his first since May 14. [The Sporting News]
