Buckner Drives Cubs Past Dodgers in Six Run Tilt
Bill Buckner fueled Chicago with a bases loaded triple a homer and a single driving in five runs as the Cubs beat Los Angeles 13 to 3. Dave Kingman added his 20th homer while Rick Reuschel returned from injury to win his third in as many starts. The Dodgers loaded the bases in the first but a pickoff by Reuschel shifted momentum and Franks praised Foote and Sizemore for the near flawless execution. Buckner and Kingman connected back to back homers off Charlie Hough in the sixth.
