. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A wild pitch by Ron Herbel with the bases loaded and two out in the eighth inning handed the Phillies a 4-3 victory over the Padres. With one out in the eighth, Deron Johnson homered to tie the score at 3-3. Passes to Don Money and Larry Bowa, around a single by Larry Hisle, loaded the bases. After Del Bates popped up, Jim Hutto was at bat when Herbel uncorked his wild pitch, allowing Money to score the winning run. [The Sporting News]
