Wednesday June 4, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Two-run homers by Otto Velez and Bob Davis and a five-hitter by Jim Clancy enabled the Blue days to trounce the Angels, 8-2. John Mayberry knocked in the first two Toronto runs with a single in the first.

The Jays locked up the decision in the fourth when Rick Bosetti scored on an error by catcher Tom Donohue and Davis followed with his homer, scoring Damaso Garcia, who had singled, ahead of him. [The Sporting News]
