. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Playing before a Ball Night crowd of 53,701, the Dodgers extended their winning streak to eight games when Don Sutton shut out the Padres, 3-0. Steve Garvey homered in the fourth inning for the only run that Sutton really needed, but the Dodgers went on to add another tally in that same stanza on singles by Willie Crawford and Ron Cey around a wild pitch by Dan Spillner. Lee Lacy singled in the fifth, advanced to second on an error and scored the final run on a single by Cey. [The Sporting News]
