July 20, 1980 - Atlanta 3, Phillies 2
After winning the first game of this series, the Phils squandered an opportunity to re-gain ground in the NL East race by losing three straight to the Atlanta Braves, who at the time were in fifth place in the NL West. Bob Walk pitched creditably for six innings, giving up three earned runs, but the Phils' offense could, for the third game in a row, score just two runs. Larry McWilliams, who going into the game had a 4.37 ERA, gave up just one earned run in going the distance to claim his seventh win of the season. For Walk, it was the first loss of his major league career after winning the first six decisions. Manny Trillo returned to the lineup and went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and an RBI, but that was the lone highlight for an overmatched lineup on this day.
