. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Dodgers, who had won 10 straight games at Candlestick Park since May 15, 1971, were stopped on their streak by Steve Stone, who pitched the Giants to a 5-2 victory. The Giants were held hitless by Bill Singer until the fourth inning when Tito Fuentes and Ed Goodson singled.

After a forceout by Dave Kingman, Chris Speier hit a sacrifice fly. Ken Henderson singled, sending Kingman to third and took second himself when the bag was left uncovered. Garry Maddox then drove in both runners with a single. The Giants clinched the verdict with two more runs in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
