Sunday July 20, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Braves posted a 5-4 victory in the completion of the protested game of May 15, but then lost the regularly-scheduled contest to the Expos, 6-5, in 11 innings. The May 15 game in Montreal was stopped by rain in the bottom of the fourth inning with the Braves leading, 4-1. Manager Clyde King protested that the umpires called the contest too quickly and he was upheld by league President Chub Feeney. When play resumed, the Braves added what proved to be the winning run when Marty Perez doubled and Cito Gaston singled in the fifth inning.

The Braves sent the regularly-schedule game into overtime by tying the score at 5-5 in the ninth with a run on singles by Ralph Garr and Darrell Evans around an infield out by Perez. However in the 11th, the Expos decided matters when Tim Foli singled, Pepe Mangual sacrificed and Pete Mackanin singled. [The Sporting News]
