The Dodgers deployed a rare two outfielders alignment at Chicago, while the Astros could not stop The Dome. Jim Wynn mishandled a fly ball in the first inning that Jim Ray Hart turned into an inside the park homer with two on, helping the Giants to a 5-2 win. Wynn later said he saw the ball as it left the bat.
