A pinch-single by Duffy Dyer in the eighth inning and an error on the hit enabled the Pirates to defeat the Expos, 4-3. Richie Zisk homered for the Pirates in the fourth, but the Expos held a 3-2 lead going into the eighth when walks to Manny Sanguillen and Bob Robertson led to the Pirates' victory. Dyer, batting for Frank Taveras, drove in Sanguillen with his single and when Tony Scott bobbled the ball in right field, Miguel Dilone, running for Robertson, also crossed the plate with the winning marker.
