Sunday June 16, 1974
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
After giving up three runs in the first inning, Jim Rooker settled down and pitched the Pirates to a 4-3 victory over the Giants. Bobby Bonds and Chris Speier walked, Garry Maddox and Ed Goodson singled and Chris Arnold hit a sacrifice fly to produce the Giants' runs.

The Pirates came back with a pair in their half on a triple by Richie Hebner and homer by Al Oliver before adding the tying and winning runs in the second. Manny Sanguillen doubled and scored on a two-bagger by Rennie Stennett. An infield out by Mario Mendoza advanced Stennett to third. Rooker walked to keep the inning going and Gene Clines then grounded out to allow Stennett to score. [The Sporting News]
