. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Dodgers utilized homers by Steve Garvey, Bill Buckner and Rick Rhoden to defeat the Expos, 4-3. Garvey homered with Buckner aboard in the first inning, Buckner hit for the circuit in the third and Rhoden then provided his own winning run with the first homer of his major league career in the fifth. The blow proved decisive because the Expos rallied for their three runs in the seventh on a double by Barry Foote, a pass to Jim Dwyer and round-tripper by Jim Lyttle. [The Sporting News]
