. . . where the 1970s live forever!

While each club collected only five hits, the Senators were able to score three runs in the first two innings and made them stand up for a 3-2 victory over the Brewers. Dave Nelson led off with a homer for the Nats and another run followed on two walks and a pair of infield outs. Another walk and singles by Nelson and Elliott Maddox produced what proved to be the deciding tally in the second inning. [The Sporting News]
