. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A pass with the bases loaded in the 14th inning gave the Phillies a 3-2 victory over the Reds. With two out, Greg Luzinski walked. Bill Plummer, a catcher playing third base because the Reds ran out of infielders, fumbled a grounder by Bill Robinson. After a passed ball by Johnny Bench, Mike Rogodzinski was handed an intentional pass. Mike Ryan then drew a walk from Pedro Borbon to force in the game-winning run. [The Sporting News]
