Lee Lacy, who had tripled, scored the winning run on John Hale's eighth-inning sacrifice fly as the Dodgers edged the Cubs, 2-1. Chicago's only run came in the same fashion in the fourth when Bill Madlock hit a three-bagger and came home on Jose Cardenal's fly ball. L.A.'s first run in the seventh came after Steve Yeager reached second on Madlock's throwing error and moved to third on an infield out. Bill Buckner, pinch-hitting for starter Don Sutton, delivered an RBI single. [The Sporting News]
