Friday June 27, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Putting together five hits with an error, the Braves scored four runs in the eighth inning and defeated the Padres, 5-3. Dale Murphy doubled, Chris Chambliss beat out a bunt and Gary Matthews singled for the first tally in the rally.

Bob Horner followed with a single off the glove of third baseman Tim Flannery and when shortstop Ozzie Smith threw wildly after recovering the ball, Chambliss scored. Two outs later, Luis Gomez singled to drive in Matthews and Horner. [The Sporting News]
