. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Rusty Staub and Bobby Wine each drove in two runs and Steve Renko pitched a seven-hit shutout as the Expos defeated the Giants, 5-0. The Expos scored three of their runs in the third inning on singles by Ron Hunt and Ron Woods, a triple by Staub and sacrifice fly by Bob Bailey.

A triple by John Bateman and single by Wine added a run in fourth. Wine then made it a big day for himself by hitting his first homer of the season in the ninth. [The Sporting News]
