. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A bases-loaded double by Willie Davis, capping a four-run outburst in the second inning, helped the Dodgers defeat the Expos, 7-3, to snap a five-game losing streak. Bobby Valentine and Bill Russell singled, Claude Osteen walked and Lee Lacy singled for one run before Davis cleared the sacks with his double. Clyde Mashore accounted for the Expos' runs with a homer in their half of the second. [The Sporting News]
