. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Combining on a six-hitter, Jim Clancy and Jerry Garvin pitched the Blue Jays to a 5-3 triumph over the Rangers. The Jays picked up two runs in the second inning on an RBI double by Otto Velez and run-scoring single by Al Woods, and Damaso Garcia made it 3-0 in the third with a solo homer. The final Toronto tallies came in the sixth on an RBI grounder by Joe Cannon and RBI single by Bob Davis. [The Sporting News]
