. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Dodgers, who beat the Cardinals, 2-1, with two homers in the previous night's game, did it again with two homers in gaining a 3-2 victory. Ron Cey hit for the circuit after a single by Dusty Baker in the second inning and Davey Lopes added a boundary belt in the third for the deciding run. [The Sporting News]
