Say, who stands only 5'9", but hits like he's 6'4", had a solo homer off starting pitcher Jim Rooker off the left field foul pole in the fourth inning, but it was his line double down the left field line off Dave Justy leading off the eighth inning that triggered the Dodgers' winning rally.

So Glenn Beckert is charged with an error, Wills is aboard, and here's the guy who ruined Ferguson Jenkins the other day, Willie Crawford.
V
2:17Vin ScullyHOST
Willie Crawford slashed a line drive the other day against Ferguson Jenkins, and Chicago came to a standstill.
V
2:24Vin ScullyHOST
The entire city, I think, must have missed a heartbeat or two until they found out that Jenkins was not seriously injured.
V
2:32Vin ScullyHOST
Fergie to his stretch, looks over at Wills.
V
2:34Vin ScullyHOST
The pitch to Crawford is strike one.
V
2:37Vin ScullyHOST
[crowd cheering] If you have been a baseball fan for a long time, and particularly if you have ever been to Chicago, you know how it is for them.
V
2:46Vin ScullyHOST
They have not won a pennant here since 1945, and this is a big league city with a tremendous desire for good baseball.

And Say is at third base, and Russell at first, as Russell dumped the bunt out in front of the plate in the dirt.

Sanguillen threw to third and had no chance, and they give Russell a base hit on it.

138:06Vin ScullySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
So Russell gets a hit in front of the plate on the bunt, and Yeager due up is going to be called back, and Willie Crawford now will come on and swing a bat for Yeager.

138:16Vin ScullySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
So Crawford will come up, making his first appearance in the series, and the Dodgers have runners at first and third with nobody out as Russell waves the bunt down, and Sanguillen threw to third with no chance.
