Gary Matthews walked in the 12th inning and with two out raced home from first base on a double by Willie Montanez to give the Giants a 4-3 victory over the Expos. The first 10 innings of the game were scoreless in a duel between Dan Warthen and John Montefusco.

Warthen, who had allowed only one hit, folded in the 11th and gave up a pass to Bobby Murcer and a homer by Matthews. After Chris Speier singled, Don DeMola relieved. Speier stole second and scored on a single by Bruce Miller. The Expos came back to tie the score in their half with a walk to Gary Carter, single by Larry Biittner, double by Larry Parrish and triple by Pete Mackanin. [The Sporting News]
