. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Successive doubles by Nate Colbert and Mike Jorgensen in the seventh inning provided the Expos with what proved to be their winning run in a 4-3 victory over the Cubs. Earlier in the game, Pete Mackanin hit a two-run homer for the Expos in the fourth. It was the 13th round-tripper of his career, but only his first with a man on base. Jerry Morales, hitting safely in his ninth straight game, hit a round-tripper for the Cubs in the ninth. [The Sporting News]
