Sunday August 28, 1977
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
In a fantastic batting outburst, Steve Garvey smashed two homers, one of them with the bases loaded, and three doubles as the Dodgers humiliated the Cardinals, 11-0. Garvey drove in five runs. By scoring on each of his five trips to the plate, the first baseman set a Dodger individual record for most runs in one game. The shutout by Don Sutton on a six-hitter was the 47th of his career.
