Game One - Rick Monday slams two two-run homers off of the Pirates' Odell Jones to account for all the Dodgers' runs in a 4-3 win over the Pirates. Fernando Valenzuela goes eight innings for the win, and Dave Stewart finishes up for the save.
Game Two - Phil Garner breaks a 3-3 tie in the fifth inning, and Pascual Perez helps save a spent Pittsburgh bullpen by pitching eight innings in the Pirates 4-3 win over the Dodgers. Perez throws 144 pitches with an empty bullpen, finally giving way to Grant Jackson, who pitces the ninth for a save. Monday hits his third two-run homer of the series, and Mike Scioscia goes 3-5 for seven hits in the first two games.
Game Three - The teams play their third one-run game of the series, as the Pirates pull out a 3-2 win in ten innings. Ken Landreaux tied the game for the Dodgers in the top of the ninth with a pinch-hit sacrifice fly. With one out in the bottom of the tenth, Willie Stargell hit a pinch double. Pinch-runner Lee Lacy stole third and the Dodgers intentionally walked Phil Garner. With Omar Moreno coming to bat, the Dodgers played the infield back to try for an inning-ending double play; but Moreno's grounder was too slow for the Dodgers to turn two, and Lacy scored the game and series-winning run.
