Sunday April 12, 1981
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
The Giants outlasted the Padres, 7-6, in 14 innings as Mike Ivie drove in the winning run and reliever Fred Breining notched his first major league victory. With the score 6-6 in the 14th, nobody on and two out, Larry Herndon drilled a two-bagger. After Jack Clark received an intentional base on balls, Ivie singled to left, scoring Herndon.

Gene Richards' RBI triple had given the Padres a 6-5 lead in the top of the ninth but a homer by Darrell Evans tied the contest in the bottom of the inning. The Padres had built an early 4-0 lead on a bases-loaded homer by rookie Randy Bass in the third inning. [The Sporting News]
