| After a heart-breaking loss to the Astros the previous night, the Dodgers recovered behind the complete pitching effort of Claude Osteen and the bat of Willie Crawford to reserve a place in the first ever NLCS. The Los Angeles southpaw took a three hitter to the final frame before faltering. Crawford broke a scoreless tie off Astros ace Larry Dierker with a two run double in the sixth to propel the home team to the historic victory. |

Claude Osteen went 9 strong innings as the Los Angeles Dodgers topped the
Houston Astros by a score of 4 to 2 at Dodger Stadium.
Los Angeles scored 2 runs in the bottom of the 6th inning when they had 3 base
hits. The highlight belonged to Willie Crawford who brought a roar from the
partisan Dodger Stadium fans when he doubled scoring two baserunners. The
teams had been locked in a scoreless duel until the 6th inning.
Osteen(17-17) was the winner allowing 2 runs for the game. Larry
Dierker(21-13) was the losing pitcher. 'Osteen just dominated us' losing
pitcher Dierker said. 'Hopefully we can get to him the next time around'
