. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Bill Madlock delivered a bases-loaded single with two out in the 11th inning to lift the Giants to an 8-7 victory over the Braves. Dave Campbell, the Braves' fifth pitcher, suddenly lost control and walked Darrell Evans, Derrel Thomas and Rob Andrews in succession before losing the game on Madlock's hit. [The Sporting News]
