. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Led by Willie Montanez, who smashed a homer, two doubles and a single in his perfect day at bat while driving in four runs, the Phillies outslugged the Giants, 11-7. Bob Boone batted in three runs and Tommy Hutton two, with their hits including a homer apiece.

The Phillies staked Steve Carlton to a 10-2 lead, but the ace lefthander was knocked out in the seventh inning when Dave Kingman connected for a grand-slam homer. Billy Wilson, relieving, gave up another run before the inning ended, but then held the Giants scoreless in the last two stanzas. [The Sporting News]
