. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Phillies snapped a 10-game losing streak by defeating the Pirates, 2-0, behind the four-hit pitching of Chris Short. The Phillies scored only run they needed on a walk to Johnny Briggs and singles by Don Money and Deron Johnson in the first inning, but Larry Bowa added an insurance marker by stealing home in the second.
