Friday April 11, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Darrell Evans committed three errors at third base in one inning, tying the N. L. record for his position and resulting in the Giants losing to the Padres, 5-3. With the Giants leading, 3-2, Ozzie Smith drew a walk to open the seventh. Dave Cash hit a grounder to Evans, who fumbled the ball for one error and then threw wildly, allowing Smith to score the tying run and Cash to reach third. Gene Richards followed with a grounder to Evans, which he again booted, but Cash held third. Dave Winfield then forced Richards at second as Cash scored the run that broke the tie.
