Wednesday May 28, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Allowing only two hits, Gary Nolan pitched the Reds to a 6-0 victory over the Expos for the righthander's first shutout since June 26, 1972. Nolan, making a comeback from shoulder surgery last May, extended the Reds' winning streak to seven games.

Joe Morgan opened the scoring with a homer in the fourth inning. The Reds posted two more runs in the fifth on singles by Nolan, Pete Rose and Ken Griffey, together with a wild pitch. Walks to Griffey and Morgan, a double by Johnny Bench and sacrifice fly by Dan Driessen added a pair in the seventh. A single by Dave Concepcion, an infield out and double by Doug Flynn wrapped up the scoring in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
