. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Pirates extended their winning streak at Three Rivers Stadium to 12 games by sweeping a doubleheader with the Phillies, 11-8 and 3-2. In the opener, the Pirates built up an 11-1 lead and then survived a seven-run rally by the Phillies in the ninth inning. Richie Hebner drove in three of the Pirates' runs with a homer, triple and single. Ken Brett, who gained his 10th victory, helped his own cause with a single and double, scoring one run and batting in another.

Brett left the mound with one out in the ninth after the Phillies had scored three runs on an error and four hits, including a two-run double by Tommy Hutton. Dave Giusti, in relief, threw a wild pitch, issued a pass with the bases loaded and gave up a single by Bob Boone for three more runs while retiring one batter before giving way to Ramon Hernandez. Del Unser singled to drive in the Phils' seventh run of the stanza before Dave Cash flied out to end the game.

In the nightcap, Willie Montanez batted in the Phillies' two runs with a double in the sixth inning, but the Pirates exploded for three extra-base hits -- a double by Al Oliver, triple by Dave Parker and homer by Richie Zisk -- for their winning trio in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
