. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Following up a two-hitter against the Pirates in his previous start, Steve Arlin allowed only one hit and pitched the Padres to a 4-1 victory over the Giants. Garry Maddox tripled in the second inning for the lone blow off Arlin and scored on a sacrifice fly by Al Gallagher.

The Padres, after tying the count against Sam McDowell in the fifth, won the game in the eighth when Fred Stanley singled, Leron Lee beat out a bunt and Nate Colbert smashed a three-run homer. [The Sporting News]
