. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Fergie Jenkins was able to continue his career mastery of the Padres when the Cubs broke a tight game apart with four runs in the sixth inning and three in the seventh to gain a 10-4 victory. Jenkins, who was lifted for a pinch-runner in the sixth, was credited with his 12th straight triumph over the Padres without a defeat. It also was the Cubs' 41st victory in 51 games with the Padres since San Diego entered the N. L. in 1969. [The Sporting News]
