1975 Baseball Replay

OK, this has taken me forever, but in what little spare time I have, I'm doing a replay of the 1975 season, both AL & NL. I'll post highlights from games, and even occasionally make up quotes. Basically, it's for the handful of people who care, and for me to have fun with.

5/3/75 SD @ LA

Twenty-two year old rookie Rick Rhoden, making his first start of the season, went the distance to lead the Dodgers to a 9-3 victory.  Willie Crawford went 2-5 with 2 doubles and 4 RBI, while Davey Lopes chipped in with a 2-3, 2 walk, 2 runs, 3 SB evening.

Joe McIntosh (no relation to the apple that I’m aware of) was pretty lousy, giving up 4 hits, 5 walks, and 4 ER in 4-2/3 innings of work.  Rich Folkers wasn’t any better pitching in relief of McIntosh, giving up a 2-run double followed by 3 straight singles before finally striking out Rhoden to end the 5th.  That five run burst put the Dodgers up 7-1, and they coasted the rest of the way.
