. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Homers by Bobby Bonds and Dave Kingman powered the Giants to a 5-1 victory over the Expos. Bonds led off the game with his round-tripper. Ron Fairly homered for the Expos' run in the second, but the Giants took the lead again with a single by Garry Maddox and double by Chris Speier in the third and iced the game when Kingman hit his homer with two men on base in the fifth.
