Wednesday June 24, 1970
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Following up the shutout work of Bill Singer and Pete Mikkelsen in the previous night's game, Joe Moeller also whitewashed the Braves, pitching the Dodgers to a 7-0 victory. The Dodgers scored in the first inning when Billy Grabarkewitz and Manny Mota singled and Jim Lefebvre forced Mota. In the sixth, Mota doubled, took third after a long fly by Willie Davis and counted on a sacrifice fly by Wes Parker. The Dodgers then pounced on two relievers for five runs in the ninth to ice their victory. [The Sporting News]
