Thursday June 19, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Toby Harrah had two RBIs and Jorge Orta scored two runs to pace the Indians to a 5-4 triumph over the Royals. Harrah knocked in Orta twice, with a sacrifice fly in a two-run first inning and with the eventual game-winner in the sixth on a single.

Len Barker pitched the first six innings to gain the victory and Mike Stanton hurled the final three frames to pick up his third save. Miguel Dilone collected three hits, scored one run and stole two bases to help the Indians win their 10th in the last 14 games. [The Sporting News]
