. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Mike Jorgensen rapped four hits including a homer, and drove in four runs to lead the Expos' attack in a 9-6 victory over the Cubs. Pete Mackanin and Tim Foli also hit for the circuit. Foli's homer was his first since September 23, 1973.

Rick Monday and Andre Thornton each had two RBIs for the Cubs, who lost a 5-4 lead when the Expos counted twice in the seventh inning on a bases-loaded single by Jerry White and sacrifice fly by Mackanin. Jorgensen then provided the winning margin, hitting a three-run homer in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
