Tom Hume and Doug Bair combined on a six-hitter as the Reds defeated the Dodgers, 2-1. The Reds' runs came in the first inning. Dave Concepcion stroked a leadoff single and scored on a double by Joe Morgan. An infield out advanced Morgan to third where he was in position to score on a sacrifice fly by George Foster.
