September 16, 1980 - Pittsburgh 3, Phillies 2
The Phils, knowing that the Expos were playing (and eventually would sweep) a double-header with the collapsing Mets, set out to play against the reigning World Champion Pittsburgh Pirates. Dick Ruthven pitched relatively well, giving up three runs over seven innings before giving way to Sparky Lyle for two shutout frames. Unfortunately, Pirates pitchers Jim Bibby and Kent Tekulve pitched just a hair better, holding the Phils to two runs on three hits. The Phils had a chance in the ninth with pinch-runner Jay Loviglio on third, pinch-runner Bob Dernier on second and just one out, but Larry Bowa and Bob Boone could not drive them home. The Phils slipped to 2½ games behind the Expos.
