. . . where the 1970s live forever!

While Steve Carlton pitched a five-hitter, Mike Schmidt batted in two runs with a homer and sacrifice fly to lead the Phillies to a 3-1 victory over the Pirates. Schmidt connected for the circuit in the second inning before the Pirates picked up an unearned run off Carlton on a throwing error by Bob Boone in the fourth. The Phillies regained the lead in their half with a run on a double by Greg Luzinski, grounder by Willie Montanez and Schmidt's sacrifice fly. [The Sporting News]
