Saturday June 1, 1974
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Twenty members of Ron Cey's family, including his wife Fran, saw the Dodgers' third baseman set a Los Angeles club record by driving in seven runs in a 10-0 victory over the Cubs. Cey homered with two men aboard in the second inning, drove in two runs with a bases-loaded single in the third and then homered again with one on in the fourth. His outburst surpassed the former L. A. mark of six RBIs in one game, shared by Ron Fairly, Frank Howard and Andy Kosco. Andy Messersmith pitched the shutout, holding the Cubs to six hits. [The Sporting News]
