. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Pete Falcone yielded only four hits and no runs before being lifted in the eighth inning as the Giants defeated the Phillies, 4-1. After walking Larry Bowa in the eighth, Falcone gave way to Randy Moffitt, who allowed the Phillies' run in the ninth on a double by Garry Maddox and single by Tim McCarver.

The Giants reached Tom Underwood for their initial tally in the third on a double by Derrel Thomas and single by Gary Matthews. A double by Chris Speier, an infield out and sacrifice fly by Mike Sadek added a run in the fourth before the Giants put the game out of reach with a pair in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
