. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Reds, after scoring three unearned runs, came back with an error of their own to hand a 5-4 victory to the Expos. The Reds went ahead in the seventh, 4-2, with their tainted trio. In the eighth, the Expos began their rally with singles by Jim Dwyer, Mike Jorgensen and Larry Parrish to load the bases. Pete Mackainin then singled, driving in two runs, and when Dave Concepcion dropped the relay from the outfield, Parrish counted what proved to be the winning tally. [The Sporting News]
