. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Completing the three-game sweep, the Phillies downed the Giants, 4-3. The Phils surged to a 3-0 lead in the second inning on a throwing error by Giants third baseman Darrell Evans, a double by Dick Ruthven and single by Mike Schmidt. Larry Bowa squeezed home a sixth-inning tally. Chris Bourjos hit his first major league homer -- a two-run shot -- in the bottom of the ninth for the Giants. [The Sporting News]
