. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Tom Seaver posted his fifth straight victory and Donn Clendenon drove in both runs as the Mets edged the Padres, 2-1. Tommie Agee singled in the second inning and stopped at third on a double by Bud Harrelson. After Art Shamsky was passed intentionally, Clendenon singled for his RBIs. Steve Huntz homered in the sixth for the Padres' run off Seaver, who won his 15th regular-season game in succession since starting the string last August 9. [The Sporting News]
