Sunday July 13, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Rallying for four runs in the seventh inning, the torrid Reds extended their winning streak to 10 games with a 5-3 victory over the Mets. The Mets scored all their runs off Gary Nolan in the first and were breezing along behind the two-hit pitching of Tom Seaver before the Reds erupted. Joe Morgan ignited the rally by drawing a walk and stealing second. After advancing on a passed ball, Morgan scored on a double by Dan Driessen.

Tony Perez struck out, but Cesar Geronimo beat out an infield hit. Dave Concepcion singled to drive in Driessen. After Terry Crowley walked to load the bases, Rick Baldwin replaced Seaver. Pete Rose then singled to drive in two runs, putting the Reds ahead and breaking Seaver's personal eight-game winning streak. [The Sporting News]
