. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Taking advantage of the Cubs' difficulties with two bunts, the Phillies scored a run in the ninth inning to gain a 2-1 victory. Deron Johnson walked to lead off and gave way on the paths to Terry Harmon. An error on a bunt by Oscar Gamble and a late throw to third on another bunt by Don Money enabled the Phillies to load the bases. Ron Stone then singled to drive in the winning run.
