. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Clawing their way back after the Expos took a 4-0 lead in the first inning, the Reds finally gained a 5-4 victory in the 10th when Lee May singled, Bernie Carbo doubled and Darrel Chaney singled to drive in the winning run.

The Expos took their lead in the first on a solo homer by Rusty Staub and a three-run smash by John Bateman. The Reds picked up a run in their half of the first, added two in the third and tied the score on a homer by Bobby Tolan in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
