. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Two doubles by Dave Parker were among the Pirates' key hits in a 7-3 victory over the Phillies. Parker doubled and scored one of the Pirates' three runs in the first inning. Parker's second double drove in two runs in the eighth when the Pirates padded their lead to 7-0. The Phillies had a homer by Davey Johnson in a ninth-inning rally that fell far short with only three runs. [The Sporting News]
