Tuesday April 27, 1982
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Two homers by Jason Thompson and a grand slam by Tony Pena powered the Pirates to a 10-4 thumping of the Braves, Atlanta's fifth straight loss. The Bucs took a 2-0 lead in their first turn at bat on a single by Dave Parker and Thompson's first round-tripper. Pena's blast came in the fifth after a single by Johnny Ray, walk to Parker and intentional walk to Mike Easler. Thompson drilled his second homer leading off the seventh. [The Sporting News]
