Friday June 27, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Steve Carlton's eight-game winning streak came to an end when the Phillies' ace southpaw lost to the Mets, 3-2. John Pacella pitched six innings for the Mets and gained his first major league victory with the relief assistance of Tom Hausman.

The Mets scored all their runs in the sixth, starting with an inside-the-park homer by Lee Mazzilli on a bloop fly that bounced past Bake McBride in right field. Frank Taveras, John Stearns and Joel Youngblood followed with singles for another run and Alex Trevino hit a sacrifice fly to produce what proved to be the deciding tally. Bob Boone hit a two-run homer for the Phillies in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
