may 8 Steve Garvey blasted 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI as the LosAngeles Dodgers topped the floundering Montreal Expos in 10 innings by a score of 5 to 3 at Olympic Stadium. The score was knotted at 3 after nine innings. Los Angeles won the hard fought contest in the 10th inning. Kurt Bevacqua led off and he drew a walk. Garvey next to the plate and he cleared the fences for a two-run home run (his 9th of the season). Los Angeles ended up with 13 hits for the game while Montreal had 9. The win was credited to Terry Forster(1-1) who went 2 innings allowing no runs. Bill Atkinson(1-3) suffered the loss in relief. He gave up 2 runs and 2 hits without retiring a batter. 'I've spent a lot of time in the cage and made some adjustments and they've paid off,' Garvey said. 'I just take the same approach up there. I don't overanalyze it. I go up there, see the ball and try to put a good swing on it.'
