. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Jimmy Stewart, subbing for the injured Tommy Helms at second base, tripled with the bases loaded in the first inning to start the Reds off to a 4-2 victory over the Mets. Wayne Simpson, who was the winner with ninth-inning help from Clay Carroll, got off to a shaky start, giving up two runs in the first, but the Reds came back to load the bases when Pete Rose and Tony Perez singled and Bernie Carbo walked to set the stage for Stewart's triple.
