. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Hank Aaron drove in two runs with a double and Rico Carty followed with a homer as the Braves exploded in the seventh inning to beat the Phillies, 5-2. Mike Lum led off the stanza with a single and was forced by Pat Jarvis. Gil Garrido singled, but Felix Millan flied out before Aaron and Carty boomed their bats. [The Sporting News]
