. . . where the 1970s live forever!
The Padres scored two runs in the fourth inning and went on to end the Giants' four-game winning streak, 3-1. Singles by Tito Fuentes and Willie Davis plus Bobby Murcer's throwing error and Dave Winfield's sacrifice fly sent the Padres in front to stay. [The Sporting News]
