. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Dividing a pair of close games, the Phillies won the opener of a doubleheader, 3-2, and the Pirates gained a split with a 2-1 victory in the nightcap. A homer by Richie Hebner in the fifth inning gave the Pirates a 1-0 lead in the first game before the Phillies rallied for all their runs in the eighth. Mike Anderson singled and, after a forceout, a single by Willie Montanez and pass to Dave Cash loaded the bases. Larry Bowa doubled, driving in pinch-runners Billy Grabarkewitz and Terry Harmon. Del Unser followed with a squeeze bunt and Cash scored what proved to be the deciding run. The Pirates fell short with a run in the ninth.

In the second game, the Pirates got on the board in the second with singles by Manny Sanguillen and Gene Clines and an infield out by Mario Mendoza. The Phillies pulled even in the third when Tommy Hutton walked, stole second and scored on a single by Dick Ruthven. Rennie Stennett walked in the fifth and, with two out, raced home from first to score the Pirates' winning run on a double by Willie Stargell. [The Sporting News]
