Saturday July 12, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Continuing his red-hot hitting, Willie Stargell drove in three runs with a sacrifice fly, homer and triple, but the Pirates' slugger had to share the honors with Bill Robinson in a 6-4 victory over the Padres. After Stargell's triple drove in Al Oliver and tied the score at 4-4 in the eighth inning, Robinson came to the plate and smashed a homer for the winning runs. [The Sporting News]
