. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Exploding for five runs in the seventh inning, the Cubs defeated the Giants, 6-4. The Cubs were behind, 3-1, when Bill Buckner began the seventh with a double and went to third on a single by Keith Moreland. After Leon Durham walked to load the bases, a single by Jody Davis scored Buckner. Larry Bowa fouled out but Ryne Sandberg kept the rally alive with a single that scored Moreland. Gary Woods then drilled a two-run pinch-double and the final tally of the inning came on a sacrifice fly by Junior Kennedy. [The Sporting News]
