Dallas Green and Larry Bowa argue with umpire Steve Fields.

The Phils limped into Atlanta after losing two out of three to the remnants of the Big Red Machine. The Braves made the most out of 10 hits and two Mike Schmidt errors, beating Randy Lerch 7-3. This would be Lerch's fifth loss without a victory. The Phils managed six hits, including doubles by Schmidt, Lerch and Pete Rose.  Larry Bowa wold be ejected for arguing balls and strikes - his sole ejection of the season.
