. . . where the 1970s live forever!

After two successive defeats, Randy Jones achieved his 20th victory of the season when the Padres' star lefthander shut out the Expos, 2-0. In becoming the first major leaguer to enter the charmed circle this season, Jones needed just 94 pitches to subdue the Expos, who went down to their 12th straight setback.

The complete game was his 22nd in 32 starts and the shutout was his fifth of the year. The Padres scored both their runs off Woodie Fryman in the fourth inning when Dave Winfield singled and Mike Ivie and Fred Kendall followed with doubles. [The Sporting News]
