Tuesday June 24, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
The Padres got great pitching performances from Randy Jones and Brent Strom to defeat the Giants in both games of a twi-night doubleheader, 2-1 and 3-0, with the opener going 10 innings. Jones gave up 11 hits, but the Giants scored only on a homer by Bobby Murcer in the sixth inning. The Padres, who counted their first run on a double by Fred Kendall in the second, broke a tie in the 10th after Enzo Hernandez singled and moved up on a sacrifice by Jones. Bobby Tolan bunted safely, sending Hernandez to third. Tito Fuentes then hit a grounder to Derrel Thomas, who fumbled the ball and missed a chance for a play at the plate as Hernandez scored.

In the nightcap, Strom allowed only two hits. The Padres had five extra-base blows among their eight hits, including a homer by Willie McCovey. [The Sporting News]
