. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Pat Dobson allowed only one hit in seven innings before leaving the mound because of a rib injury and Jim Kern then finished pitching the Indians to a 3-0 victory over the Royals. The triumph was the fifth in a row for Dobson. Buddy Bell had a double and single for the Indians, hitting safely in his 13th straight game. [The Sporting News]
