Friday June 27, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Dan Driessen's two-out, three-run homer in the 11th inning gave the Reds a 5-2 victory over the Padres. A single by Joe Morgan and intentional pass to Johnny Bench after Morgan stole second preceded Driessen's game-winning blast.

The Padres took a 2-1 lead in the fourth on Gene Locklear's homer but Morgan's 11th homer, leading off the eighth, tied the game. The Reds played errorless ball for the 11th straight game, tying a National League record. [The Sporting News]
