Wednesday June 14, 1978
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
With Gaylord Perry pitching his 48th career shutout, the Padres swept a doubleheader from the Expos, 6-2 and 1-0. In the first game, an 11-hit Padre attack was highlighted by a home run by Dave Winfield and a two-run single by Gene Tenace.

The only run of the second game came in the fourth inning when Ozzie Smith and Tenace drew walks to open the frame and Winfield hit a single. [The Sporting News]
