. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A three-run uprising in the ninth inning, featuring a triple by Mike Ivie, provided the Padres with a 6-3 victory over the Reds. Dave Winfield led off the stanza with a single and was forced by George Hendrick. Gene Tenace followed with a single and Ivie then blasted his triple for two runs to break a 3-3 tie. One out later, Bill Almon singled home Ivie to wrap up the scoring. [The Sporting News]
