Wednesday June 10, 1981
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Mike Lum went 3-for-3, including his first homer of the year, as the Cubs defeated the Giants, 7-4. Lum opened the second inning with his round-tripper and the Cubs erupted for three runs in the third inning on an RBI double by Bill Buckner, run-scoring single by Jerry Morales and a sacrifice fly by Ken Reitz. Morales added an RBI single in the fifth, and a single by Ivan DeJesus and a two-bagger by Buckner drove in Chicago's final two markers in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
