They&#8217;ve now won 8 of their last 10 games. Don Drysdale scattered 8 hits in 7 innings while striking out 8, but two of those hits were solo homers by Barry Bonds. Chicago starter Rick Reuschel was nearly as good, allowing just 3 runs in a 5-single 3rd. In the 8th, with the game tied 3-3, Tony P\u00e9rez hit a 2-run homer off Roy Oswalt to put LA back in the lead. Chicago loaded the bases in the bottom of the inning against Trevor Hoffman, but pinch-hitter Sammy Sosa grounded out to end the threat. Keith Hernandez hit a solo shot in the 9th to cut the LA lead to 5-4, but that&#8217;s all the Docs could manage. LA is now 19-14. The St. Louis Wizards lead in the NL, once seemingly insurmountable, is now just 3 1\/2 games. The Wizards host the Houston Hoots tonight. Chicago fell to 11-22. Joe Morgan went 0 for 5 to end his hitting streak at 18 games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/baseballmaelstrom.com\/?sp_event=676\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Los Angeles @ Chicago &#8211; 5\/8\/22<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Los Angeles Dynamos held on for their 4th straight win, topping the Chicago Docs 5-4, gaining ground in the National League playoff race.
