. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Tying the Expos' club record for most RBIs in one game, Willie Davis drove in seven runs with a pair of homers, including a grand slam, to lead the attack in a 16-6 rout of Reds. John Bateman in 1970 and Bob Bailey in 1973 previously had seven RBIs in one game for the Expos.

Mike Jorgensen hit a homer for the Expos in the first, but the Reds were leading, 5-1, when Ron Fairly singled with one away in the seventh and was forced by Bailey. Jim Cox walked and Barry Foote singled to score Bailey. Following a pass to Ron Woods, loading the bases, Jorgensen batted in one run with a single and Tim Foli added two more with another single before Davis came to bat and homered with two men on base to climax the seven-run inning. Outdoing that effort, the Expos erupted for eight more runs in the eighth, four of them coming on Davis' grand slam off Mike McQueen and two more scoring on a homer by Fairly. [The Sporting News]
