. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A double by Glenn Hubbard drove home the winning run as the Braves prevailed over the Cubs, 5-4, in 11 innings. Bob Horner led off the stanza with a single and was replaced by pinch-runner Luis Gomez. After Gomez moved to second on a sacrifice and Dale Murphy walked, Hubbard ripped the deciding two-bagger.
