August 26, 1980

Phillies pitching did in the team again in the second game of the series.  Bob Walk surrended five runs in just over two innings of work, and lived up to his moniker, giving up four free passes along with four hits.  Randy Lerch didn't fare much better, surrendering a pair of runs in his inning and two-third and putting the Phils in a hole they were not able to climb out of.  The Phils' linup managed to get 13 hits off a trio of Dodgers pitchers, but could only score four in the game.
