August 4, 1980

Scheduled off day for the Phillies as they prepared for the St. Louis Cardinals. The schedule was light throughout baseball, and the only two games in the National League East were both between the first-place Expos and the fourth-place Mets. They split the doubleheader, leaving the standings looking very similar to that of the day before.
