July 11 The Los Angeles Dodgers edged the ice-cold St. Louis Cardinals at BUSCH STADIUM by the score of 4 to 3. Los Angeles erupted with the game winning runs in the 8th inning scoring 2 runs on 2 hits. Larry Bowa got things going when he drew a walk. Steve Sax next to the plate and he laced a base-hit. Terry Puhl then hit a deep fly scoring a run. Sax got a good lead and stole second. One out later, Joe Lefebvre stepped up to the plate and he stroked a single scoring the final run of the inning. St. Louis threatened in the 9th but their rally came up short. Alejandro Pena(8-5) got the win allowing 3 runs in 7 innings. Pena got help from Tom Niedenfuer who earned his 18th save. Kevin Hagen(1-1) absorbed the loss in relief. Billy Vanson was in a talkative mood in the clubhouse, 'Great game! If only we could win all of the close ones - wouldn't that be nice! Since that's not going to happen, I think I'll savor this one for a little while.'

Reuss(11-6) was in control of the game from the outset. He gave up just 6 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings lowering his ERA to 3.30. St. Louis threatened in the 9th but their rally came up short. Bob Forsch(8-7) was the loser. Despite losing Mike Rescigno was optimistic after the game. 'We'll get over this one. Sometimes the breaks fall your way, sometimes they don't.
