. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Allowing only one runner to reach second base, Rick Wise tossed a five-hitter as the Indians downed the Mariners, 6-0. The Tribe's initial run came in the first inning on walks to Bobby Bonds and Andre Thornton and an RBI single by Cliff Johnson. Mike Hargrove blasted a two-run homer in the second and Bonds connected for a solo round-tripper in the third. [The Sporting News]
