Friday July 11, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Rallying in the ninth inning, the Cardinals scored four runs to defeat the Expos, 5-3. The Cards began their comeback with one-out singles by George Hendrick and Terry Kennedy to chase Steve Rogers.

After Woodie Fryman relieved, pinch-hitter Bobby Bonds singled to load the bases. Ken Oberkfell forced Bonds as Hendrick scored. Keith Smith then batted for Silvio Martinez and doubled, driving in pinch-runner Tony Scott and Oberkfell to put the Cards ahead. An error by Ellis Valentine, who dropped a fly by Garry Templeton, allowed an extra run to score. [The Sporting News]
