. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Willie Mays smashed two homers and batterymates Rich Robertson and Dick Dietz whacked one apiece as the Giants piled up 17 hits to defeat the Reds, 13-6. Robertson was racked for five runs in the first inning, three scoring on a triple by Dave Concepcion, but the righthander survived and limited the Reds to three hits in the last eight frames. Tony Perez accounted for the Reds' last run with his 25th homer of the season in the seventh.

Before the Reds' outburst in the first, the Giants had opened the game with three runs, including Mays' first homer. The Frisco crew exploded for six more runs in the third, added a tally in the sixth and got two more on circuit clouts by Mays and Dietz in the eighth. Roberston wrapped up the scoring with the first homer of his major league career in the ninth. [The Sporting News]
