. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Reds boosted their West Division lead to 5½ games, their largest margin so far this season, by shutting out the Dodgers, 6-0, behind the four-hit pitching of Fred Norman. Norman also batted in a run with a sacrifice fly, but Doug Flynn, playing in place of injured Joe Morgan, led the Reds' attack, driving in three runs with two singles and a grounder. Johnny Bench snapped out of his slump with three hits. [The Sporting News]
