. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The first four batters in the Expos' lineup -- Ron Hunt, Tim Foli, Ron Woods and Hal Breeden -- had three hits apiece in an 8-6 victory over the Reds. Woods whacked a single, double and homer, driving in four runs. Breeden tied an Expos' club record with three doubles in one game. Woods hit his homer after singles by Hunt and Foli to put the Expos ahead in the seventh, 6-5.

After the Reds tied the score in the eighth, Hunt singled in the Expos' half and scored on a double by Foli. Woods followed with a double to plate an insurance marker. [The Sporting News]
