Thursday July 25, 1974
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Steve Carlton fanned 11 Chicago batters, running his league-leading total to 151 as the Phillies smothered the Cubs, 10-2, and ruined the managerial debut of Jim Marshall. The Phillies used the long ball to take an early lead, rolling up three runs in the third on Larry Bowa's single, Mike Schmidt's triple and Willie Montanez' homer. In the sixth, the division leaders struck heavily again, pushing over five tallies on a pass to Bob Boone, singles by Tommy Hutton and Carlton, doubles by Dave Cash and Schmidt and Del Unser's one-bagger.

The Cubs scored in the third when Billy Grabarkewitz walked, took second on a wild pitch and crossed the plate on Rick Monday's two-bagger. In the seventh, they added a run as Andre Thornton doubled and ambled home on Schmidt's error on Steve Swisher's grounder. Carlton improved his season's record to 12-7, while Burt Hooton, who dropped to 3-9, failed for the fifth straight time against the Phillies who he has not beaten since May 16, 1972.
