. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Johnny Bench batted in five runs with an infield out, single and homer to lead the Reds to a 10-4 victory over the Padres. Pete Rose hit two doubles and a triple, driving in two runs. The Reds collected a total of only nine hits but benefited from 12 walks. Bench's homer with a man on base in the sixth inning was his 10th of the season, but only his first of the year at Riverfront Stadium. [The Sporting News]
