Sunday August 24, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A four-run outburst in the second inning spurred the Blue Jays to a 7-3 triumph over the White Sox. A homer by Damaso Garcia began the uprising. A double by Lloyd Moseby, triple by Danny Ainge and double by Bob Davis produced two more tallies and the final run of the frame came in when shortstop Todd Cruz dropped a fly ball by Alfredo Griffin.
