. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A two-run homer by Larry Herndon in the 15th inning gave the Giants a 2-0 victory over the Cubs in the completion of the contest that was suspended the previous day at the end of 12 innings because of darkness. The Cubs then triumphed, 3-1, in the regularly-scheduled game behind the six-hit pitching of Dennis Lamp.

The Cubs loaded the bases in the fourth inning on singles by Lenny Randle and Bill Buckner and an error by Frisco third baseman Darrell Evans on a grounder by Barry Foote. Mike Vail then drilled a two-run double to put the Cubs ahead, 2-1, and Steve Dillard capped the scoring with an RBI single. [The Sporting News]
