. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Giants took advantage of the Phillies' fifth error of the game to score an unearned run in the 10th inning and gain a 1-0 victory. John Montefusco hurled the route for the Giants and yielded only five hits, while Gene Garber was the loser in relief of Tom Underwood.

Von Joshua singled with one out in the 10th and continued to third when the ball got past center fielder Jerry Martin. Glenn Adams then batted for Bruce Miller and singled to drive in the lone run. The Phillies benched Mike Schmidt, ending the slumping third baseman's string of 231 consecutive games played. [The Sporting News]
