. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Homers by Steve Dillard and Dave Kingman highlighted the Cubs' 5-2 triumph over the Dodgers. Dillard cracked a leadoff homer in the third inning and the Cubs added three more runs in that same frame on an infield hit by Lynn McGlothen, triple by Bill Buckner and homer by Kingman.
