A homer by Davey Lopes in the fifth inning enabled the Dodgers to extend winning their streak to seven games with a 2-1 victory over the Expos in a duel between Doug Rau and Steve Rogers. The Expos loaded the bases on three singles in the third but scored only one run on a sacrifice fly by Tony Perez. Their lead lasted only until the next inning when Ron Cey doubled and Bill North singled to produce the tying run. [The Sporting News]
