. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Pushing across a run in the 10th inning, the Pirates shaded the Cardinals, 3-2. The game was tied, 2-2, when Phil Garner stroked a one-out single and went to third on a single by Steve Nicosia. Mike Easler batted for winning pitcher Grant Jackson and hit a grounder to shortstop Garry Templeton, who threw to second for a forceout, but Easler beat second baseman Ken Oberkfell's relay to first as Garner scored.
