Davey Lopes doubled and Bill Buckner homered in the eighth inning to lift the Dodgers to a 5-3 victory over the Giants in a game that saw Mike Marshall appear in relief for the 11th consecutive game. The Giants reached Andy Messersmith for a run in the second on a single by Steve Ontiveros, double by Tito Fuentes and infield out by Dave Rader before the Dodgers posted a pair in the third when Steve Yeager singled, Messersmith doubled and Buckner and Steve Garvey singled. Yeager made it 3-1 with a homer in the fifth, but the Giants came back to tie the score in the seventh on a single by Mike Phillips, triple by Bobby Bonds and infield out by Ed Goodson.
