Back to back walk-off wins for the 1976 Dodgers over the struggling Washington Senators, this time the hero was Steve Garvey with a two-run homer off of Firpo Marberry, who also ends up the scapegoat for the second consecutive game. Bill Buckner, the hero who delivered the game-winning hit in Game 1, hit a two-run HR as well.
Walter Johnson's quest for a 4-0 start for the Senators was spoiled, even though he pitched nine solid innings, striking out 8 Dodgers, while only allowing six hits & two walks. The win places the Dodgers currently in third behind (3.5 games out of first) the 1977 Philadelphia Phillies (1st) and 1984 Detroit Tigers (2nd).

The game got tied in the bottom of the 6th, with an RBI single by Manny Ramirez -- in which the game would remain deadlocked until the top of the 14th, when Junior Gilliam's triple drove in Don Thompson. The Red Sox would have first & third loaded with one out, when J.D. Drew hit into a double-play to end the threat.

After a snapping a 6 game losing streak, the Reds are hoping that their two consecutive wins are a start of a good streak. Eddie Joost went 3-for-4 with 2 doubles, a run & steal, while Bill Hershberger hit a clutch two-run single to put the lead at 5-3 during the 7th inning.

INJURIES: Johnny McCarthy (NYG) - 6 games.
The Giants felt they gave up Game 1 in their extra-innngs loss to Philadelphia, so when they started off 4-0 after two innings, it looked as if they were going to avenge their loss -- the Phillies had other ideas. John Kruk was raking it with a 3-for-4 performance that included a HR, two doubles, 3 RBI & 3 runs, Todd Pratt added a pinch-hit two-run triple for insurance during the 7th. The Giants' star first baseman, Johnny McCarthy got injured on the last play of the game while sliding into second base.

Tony Lazzeri strikes again, a day after he hit two two-run HR's against the O's, Lazzeri hits a three-run homer during the top of the 8th to put the game further out of reach with a 6-1 lead.
