. . . where the 1970s live forever!

With the Montreal Canadiens and New York Islanders appearing on television in their National Hockey League semifinal playoff series, the smallest crowd in Jarry Park's history, 3,606, turned out to watch the Padres defeat the Expos, 4-1. Jerry White homered in the first inning for the Expos' run. Dave Winfield tied the score with a round-tripper in the second and then sent the Padres ahead when he singled in the fourth and scored on singles by Hector Torres and Fred Kendall.
