. . . where the 1970s live forever!

After frittering away their scoring opportunities before winning the first game, 3-1, in 11 innings, the Cardinals piled up 17 hits in the second game and walloped the Padres, 10-2. Lou Brock stole two bases for the Cards in each game. In the opener, Brock singled in the 11th and pilfered second as Willie Davis struck out. After an intentional pass to Reggie Smith, Ted Simmons flied out, but Ron Fairly came through with a double to drive in Brock and Smith.

In the nightcap, Mike Tyson batted in four runs and Buddy Bradford drove in three to lead the Cardinals' attack. Tito Fuentes homered for the Padres. [The Sporting News]
