Sunday September 14, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
A homer by Ron Cey with a man on base in the sixth inning carried the Dodgers to a 3-2 victory over the Braves. Davey Lopes walked in the third, stole his 71st base of the season and scored the Dodgers' initial run on a single by Lee Lacy. The Braves picked up a run in the fourth and went ahead with singles by Earl Williams, Cito Gaston and Darrell Evans in the top of the sixth. In the Dodgers' half, Willie Crawford beat out a bunt and was forced by Steve Garvey before Cey hit his homer. [The Sporting News]
