. . . where the 1970s live forever!

In their poorest start since moving from Brooklyn in 1958, the Dodgers suffered their fifth straight defeat since the start of the season, bowing to the Padres, 4-0. Danny Coombs, who pitched the first six innings, combined with Ron Herbel in posting the shutout. Ed Spiezio sent the Padres on their way to victory by hitting a two-run homer in the second.
