Tuesday July 3, 1973
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Bob Bailey had the greatest game of his career, getting four hits including two homers, one with the bases loaded, and driving in seven runs to lead the Expos to a 19-8 thrashing of the Mets. Ken Singleton drove in five runs with a three-run homer and two run-producing singles. John Boccabella also had a homer for the Expos, who set a club record for runs and hits (21). The Expos' 19 markers were the most ever scored against the Mets in a single game. [The Sporting News]
