June 1, 1980

The Phils got the jump against the Cubs, scoring three in the third inning to take the early lead.  However, that was the high-water mark, as the Cubs would take the 5-4 win over the Phils and rookie righthander Bob Walk.  The Cubs took the lead when Larry Biitner hit a two-run homer in the sixth, and pulled ahead for good when Scot Thompson singled home Dave Kingman off Phils reliever Ron Reed.
