. . . where the 1970s live forever!

After being shut out for eight innings, the Padres suddenly erupted for five runs in the ninth and defeated the Phillies, 5-4. Jim Lonborg, pitching for the Phils, was in reach of his first N. L. shutout when the Padres began their rally with a walk to Dave Roberts and singles by Fred Kendall and Cito Gaston to load the bases with one out. Derrel Thomas doubled, driving in two runs and forcing the exit of Lonborg. Frank Linzy relieved and failed to retire a batter. Rich Morales singled, sending in two runs to tie the score. Nate Colbert also singled and Willie McCovey followed with the Padres' sixth hit of the inning to drive in the winning tally. [The Sporting News]
