Sunday June 15, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Tom Seaver pitched a three-hitter and posted his second consecutive shutout and 10th victory as the Mets defeated the Padres, 6-0. Only one of the Mets' runs was earned. Brent Strom, recalled from Hawaii (Pacific Coast), made his first major league start since 1973 and matched Seaver's shutout pitching until the seventh inning when the Mets scored an unearned run on a safe bunt by Del Unser, double by John Stearns and error by Enzo Hernandez. The Mets piled up their remaining runs against relievers Dave Tomlin and Bill Greif in the ninth on only three hits with the aid of two errors and two wild pitches. [The Sporting News]
