. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Carl Morton, a former outfielder in the minor leagues, allowed only three hits and pitched the Expos to a 3-1 victory over the Dodgers. Two unearned runs in the first inning gave the Expos their edge. Mack Jones drove in the tainted tallies with a double after Ron Brand bunted safely, Maury Wills booted a grounder by Rusty Staub and Jack Hiatt walked to load the bases. [The Sporting News]
