. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A pair of homers by Dave Winfield and another by Graig Nettles powered the Yankees to a 9-0 victory over the Orioles. Winfield clouted a solo blast in the first inning and two-run shot in the fifth. Nettles drilled a two-run round-tripper in the first and added an RBI single in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
