Brief highlights of Pittsburgh at Atlanta on Saturday, August 1 1970 and wrap up of Los Angeles at Montreal on Sunday, August 2 1970 at Jarry Park in Montreal.

Also featured are: 0:00 - Bill Fiore and Mary Jo Catlett in that Right Guard commercial. 2:46 - James Hampton (F Troop) at 3:25 in the Winston ad. 10:12 - Hank Aaron for Wheaties. That's either Larry Santos or Bobby Bloom singing the jingle. Curt Gowdy does the voiceover.

Willie Stargell ties modern record for most multi base hits in one game (5). A real hitting blowout with the Pirates winning 20 to 10 over Atlanta. Also, there is a brief post game interview with Dodgers manager Walter Alston following a 6-3 come from behind win against the Expos. Vin Scully provides closing comments with a promo for a local Toyota dealer. This is rare colour videotape footage of Jarry Park which was the Expos' home field from 1969 through 1976.

Trusting I put it in the proper place this time in Chat, as I had my original posting of this removed earlier.

I never understood those Right Guard commercials where the apartment bathrooms have an opening in the medicine chest to the neighbors. Memorable commercials: “Hi Guy!”

My Dodgers loved beating up on the Braves in the ‘70s. Their ace, knuckle-baller Phil Niekro, won AND lost 20 games in 1979, leading BOTH categories.
