. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Expos, after being shut out by Barry Lersch, 3-0, in the first game of a doubleheader, ended a string of 32 scoreless innings in the second game and defeated the Phillies, 8-4. Lersch allowed only two hits. Denny Doyle had a pair of key singles for the Phillies, driving in one run and scoring another.

Balor Moore, who was the winner of the nightcap with ninth-inning help from Mike Marshall, drove in two of the Expos' runs. Tim McCarver also accounted for two with a homer and single, while Jim Fairey batted in a pair with a double. [The Sporting News]
