Wednesday August 13, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
A bad-hop single by Mike Lum capped a two-run rally in the seventh inning and brought the Braves a 4-3 victory over the Pirates. Ralph Garr led off with a double, went to third on a single by Rob Belloir and scored the tying run on an infield out by Darrell Evans. Belloir reached third on another infield out by Dusty Baker and then scored the winning run when Lum hit a grounder that took a bad hop over the head of first baseman Bob Robertson.
