. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Making his first major league start, Tom Underwood, lefthander from Reading (Eastern), yielded only five hits and pitched the Phillies to a 2-0 victory over the Cardinals. Greg Luzinski homered in the fourth inning for the only run that Underwood needed, but the Phillies provided more elbow room with another tally in the fifth. Bob Boone and Alan Bannister walked and, after Underwood bunted into a double play, erasing Boone, Bannister scored on a single by Dave Cash. [The Sporting News]
