. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Knowing by mid-game that they had been eliminated from the N. L. Eastern Division pennant race, the Pirates fell to the Padres, 4-3, and settled for third place before the smallest Pittsburgh crowd of the year, 2,572. Rookie southpaw Randy Jones earned his seventh victory for the Padres, who broke a 3-3 tie and scored the winning run on a double by Jones shortly after the news of the Mets' win over the Cubs in Chicago was announced on the scoreboard.
