. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Giants exploded for six runs in the first inning, three scoring on a triple by Ed Goodson and two on a double by Juan Marichal, to embark on an 11-2 victory over the Padres. Marichal was hit just below the right knee by a line drive off the bat of Enzo Hernandez, the Padres' leafoff batter, but stayed around to pitch five innings and receive credit for his second victory of the season. The veteran righthander did not win his second game last year until June 2. [The Sporting News]
