. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Mariners scored three runs in the seventh inning and won the first game of a doubleheader, 5-3, before the White Sox came back with three runs in the first inning en route to a 6-1 victory in the second game. Two walks, a double by Dave Collins and single by Dan Meyer accounted for the runs that decided the lidlifter in the Mariners' favor. In the nightcap, the White Sox made their getaway with a double by Jorge Orta, homer by Lamar Johnson and RBI single by Bob Coluccio. [The Sporting News]
