. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Larry Parrish walked with the bases loaded and two out in the 12th inning to enable the Expos to defeat the Astros, 2-1. Tim Raines, playing only his second game since being recalled from Denver (American Association), drew a pass to open the stanza and Andre Dawson beat out an infield hit.

Two outs later Gary Carter walked to load the bases. Parrish then worked the count to 3-and-2 against Frank LaCorte before ball four forced in a run to end the Expos' three-game losing streak. [The Sporting News]
