Thursday July 17, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Tom Paciorek broke a 3-3 tie with a two-run homer in the seventh inning, lifting the Mariners to a 5-3 victory over the Blue Jays. After the Jays tied the game in the top of the seventh on a homer by Otto Velez and run-scoring singles by Barry Bonnell and Bob Davis, Paciorek blasted his round-tripper in the bottom of the frame after a one-out single by Willie Horton.
