Saturday May 1, 1982
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Collecting 13 hits, the Astros downed the Pirates, 6-3. Houston broke a 1-1 tie in the third inning on a run-scoring groundout by Art Howe and an RBI single by Phil Garner. Kiko Garcia doubled home one fifth-inning marker and then came in on a single by Luis Pujols. Jose Cruz smacked a solo homer in the second inning and Terry Puhl drilled a bases-empty round-tripper in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
