. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The relief work of Tom Phoebus, who held his former teammates scoreless for 7 1/3 innings, featured the Cubs' 8-3 victory over the Padres. Phoebus, who yielded three hits, took over after the Padres scored all their runs off Milt Pappas, two counting on a triple by Steve Arlin.

Billy Williams batted in three runs for the Cubs with a homer and single. Glenn Beckert accounted for two tallies with a bases-loaded single in the sixth when the Cubs erupted for four runs to break a 3-3 tie. [The Sporting News]
