. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Staked to a five-run lead in the second inning, Gaylord Perry pitched the Giants to a 5-0 victory over the Padres. Perry was so effective, yielding only three hits and striking out 11, that the Giants' outfield made just one putout. Al Gallagher hit a two-run homer in the Giants' big inning. [The Sporting News]
