. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Pinch-hitting in the ninth inning, Ed Goodson came through with his first homer of the season to give the Dodgers a 3-2 victory over the Braves. Ron Cey batted in the Dodgers' initial run with a sacrifice fly in the first. The Braves took the lead in the second with a pass to Jeff Burroughs, triple by Gary Matthews and infield out by Rod Gilbreath, but two errors by Jerry Royster and a double by Dusty Baker enabled the Dodgers to tie the score with an unearned run in the eighth.
