1978 Montreal Expos vs Atlanta Braves - Radio Broadcast / On July 30, 1978, the Montreal Expos faced off against the Atlanta Braves at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. The Expos, under the management of Dick Williams, were having a solid season and were in contention in the National League East. The Braves, managed by Bobby Cox, were struggling in the lower half of the National League West standings. The game featured Woodie Fryman starting for the Expos and Tom Boggs for the Braves. Montreal had been experiencing standout performances from players like Andre Dawson and Gary Carter, while the Braves were looking for consistent contributions from their young talent, including Bob Horner.
The game quickly became one-sided as the Expos' offense exploded early. Andre Dawson and Larry Parrish both hit multiple home runs, leading an offensive onslaught that saw the Expos score eight runs in the third inning alone. Dawson's power and Parrish's consistent hitting overwhelmed the Braves' pitching staff, which included relievers Craig Skok and Rick Mahler, who struggled to contain the Expos' lineup. Fryman, on the mound for Montreal, delivered a dominant performance, keeping the Braves scoreless and allowing only seven hits throughout the game.
The Expos ultimately triumphed with a staggering 19-0 victory, highlighted by their 28 hits and eight home runs. This win was a reflection of the Expos' strong season, which saw them finishing second in the National League East, just short of the playoffs. Key players like Dawson and Carter continued to be pivotal throughout the season, earning accolades for their performances. The Braves, on the other hand, continued their rebuilding phase, looking ahead to future seasons for improvement.

The Pirates, who were having a solid season, were looking to solidify their standing in the National League East, while the Phillies were trying to keep their playoff hopes alive. The starting pitchers for the game were Bruce Kison for the Pirates and Tom Underwood for the Phillies. Kison was in the midst of a solid season, looking to build on his 11-11 record, while Underwood, with a 14-12 record, was hoping to provide the Phillies with a much-needed boost. The 1975 season overall had been marked by the dominance of the Cincinnati Reds, also known as the "Big Red Machine", who were in the midst of one of the greatest seasons in baseball history.
The game started off with both teams unable to score in the first inning. The Pirates got on the scoreboard first in the second inning and added three more runs in the fourth inning. The Phillies, on the other hand, were held scoreless until the fifth inning when they managed to score a single run. The Pirates' offense was led by Willie Stargell and Dave Parker, who combined for five hits and six runs batted in. Stargell, in particular, had a big day at the plate, reaching base five times and scoring four runs. The Phillies' offense was largely stifled by Kison and reliever Kent Tekulve, who combined to allow just three runs.
The Phillies made an attempt to come back in the seventh inning, scoring two runs to cut the Pirates' lead to 5-3. However, the Pirates responded with a massive five-run eighth inning, highlighted by a two-run home run by Parker, his 25th of the season, to extend their lead to 11-3. The Phillies were unable to mount a comeback in the ninth inning, and the Pirates secured a comfortable victory.
The Pirates' victory on September 22, 1975, was a key moment in their successful season. They would go on to finish second in the National League East, just 6.5 games behind the division-winning Philadelphia Phillies. Despite their loss in this game, the Phillies would rally to win the division and make the playoffs, but they were defeated by the Cincinnati Reds in the National League Championship Series. The Reds would go on to win the World Series, cementing their status as one of the greatest teams in baseball history. The 1975 season also saw a number of individual accolades, with Joe Morgan of the Reds winning the National League Most Valuable Player award, and Tom Seaver of the New York Mets winning the Cy Young Award.
