. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Phillies won one game in the first inning and the other in the 13th inning in a sweep of a doubleheader with the Cardinals, 5-1 and 3-2. In the opener, the Phillies rapped Jerry Reuss for five straight hits while scoring four runs in the first. Larry Bowa tripled and Denny Doyle, Don Money and Deron Johnson singled to account for the first two tallies. After an infield hit by Joe Lis loaded the bases, Byron Browne walked to force in another run. A grounder by Larry Hisle produced the fourth counter.

In the nightcap, Tim McCarver singled to open the 13th for the Phillies, stole second and continued to third on a wild throw by Ted Simmons. The Cardinals then walked Money and Willie Montanez intentionally to load the bases and got two forceouts at the plate on grounders by Jim Hutto and Lis, but Bowa singled to drive in the winning run.
