JULY 30 Rick Reuschel had a strong outing as the Chicago NL Cubs topped the Los Angeles Dodgers by a score of 5 to 1 at Wrigley Field. Chicago NL went ahead for good in the 2nd inning scoring one runner using 2 hits. After an out was recorded, Bill Buckner delivered a one-base hit. Larry Biittner next to the plate and he was hit by a pitch. Ken Reitz then drew a walk to load the bases. Reuschel followed and he stroked a single scoring the run. Chicago NL had 10 hits for the night. Reuschel(11-14) was the winner allowing 1 run for the game. Rick Rhoden(4-12) was charged with the loss. Alan Bosslet was very impressed with his pitcher, Reuschel, 'He had unusually good pitch placement tonight. It was almost unfair - but a beautiful game to watch from where I sat' Dodgers AB R H RBI AVG Cubs AB R H RBI AVG T.Puhl RF 4 0 1 0 .313 T.Sizemore 2B 3 0 2 0 .204 R.Landestoy SS 4 0 0 0 .250 T.Foli SS 4 0 0 0 .255 S.Garvey 1B 4 1 1 1 .334 G.Clines CF 4 1 1 0 .218 R.Cey 3B 3 0 0 0 .252 L.Hisle RF 4 2 2 2 .284 K.Henderson CF 4 0 0 0 .114 G.Alexander C 4 0 0 0 .219 K.Bevacqua 2B 3 0 1 0 .308 B.Buckner 1B 4 2 3 1 .298 L.Lacy LF 3 0 1 0 .241 L.Biittner LF 3 0 0 0 .275 B.Martinez C 2 0 0 0 .162 K.Reitz 3B 3 0 1 1 .257 A-S.Staggs PH 1 0 0 0 .229 R.Reuschel P 4 0 1 1 .169 B.Castillo P 0 0 0 0 .000 R.Rhoden P 2 0 0 0 .146 L.Rautzhan P 0 0 0 0 .000 B-V.Correll PH,C 1 0 0 0 .270 -- -- -- --- -- -- -- --- Totals 31 1 4 1 Totals 33 5 10 5 A-Pinch Hit For Martinez In 8th Inning B-Pinch Hit For Rautzhan In 8th Inning Dodgers......... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 - 1 4 0 Cubs............ 0 1 0 0 0 2 0 2 - 5 10 1 Dodgers (51-64) IP H R ER BB SO HR PC ERA SCORESHEET R.Rhoden LOSS(4-12) 5 1/3 5 3 3 2 3 0 94 5.20 A1 C5 L.Rautzhan 1 2/3 2 0 0 0 0 0 28 3.90 C6 D3 B.Castillo 1 3 2 2 0 1 1 20 7.56 D4 Totals 8 10 5 5 2 4 1 Cubs (37-78) IP H R ER BB SO HR PC ERA SCORESHEET R.Reuschel WIN(11-14) 9 4 1 1 1 4 1 121 4.00 A1 Totals 9 4 1 1 1 4 1 ATTENDANCE- 49,985 DATE- Sunday, July 30th 1978 TIME- Night WEATHER- Good T- 2:16 LEFT ON BASE- Dodgers: 4 Cubs: 7 DOUBLE PLAYS- Dodgers: 1 Cubs: 1 ERRORS- T.Foli HOME RUNS- S.Garvey(19th), L.Hisle(36th) STOLEN BASES- G.Clines(7th) WALKS- R.Cey, T.Sizemore, K.Reitz HIT BY PITCH- L.Biittner STRIKE OUTS- R.Landestoy, K.Henderson-2, B.Martinez, L.Hisle, G.Alexander-2, R.Reuschel GIDP- K.Henderson, T.Sizemore WILD PITCHES- R.Reuschel ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: JULY 31 Don Sutton went 9 strong innings at Wrigley Field where the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the lifeless Chicago NL Cubs by the score of 8 to 0. Sutton(8-9) was simply too much for the Chicago NL batters. He didn't allow much, just 6 hits and no walks in 9 innings. Offensively, Los Angeles was a juggernaut. They scored in 6 separate innings. The losing pitcher was Dennis Lamp(4-11). 'All of my pitches were working tonight,' Sutton said. 'I felt really good out there, and heck, I think I could have gone longer.'

AUGUST 1 The Los Angeles Dodgers had an easy time of it at Wrigley Field defeating the pathetic Chicago NL Cubs by a score of 12 to 7. Los Angeles came up with 4 runs in the top of the 6th inning when they had 4 base hits. The critical plate appearance was by Roger Freed who deflated the spirits of the home town crowd when he doubled clearing the bases. Chicago NL was not lacking for run support as they scored in 5 separate innings, yet victory eluded them as they seemed to forget that pitching is also needed to win ballgames. Jim Lonborg(1-3) went 5 innings allowing 4 runs for the victory. The loss was charged to Ray Burris(8-16). He was not very effective, surrendering 6 runs in 5 and 1/3 innings.

The score was knotted at 1 after nine innings. Los Angeles came out the victor in the 13th inning. Terry Puhl smacked a single. Roger Metzger stepped up to the plate and he laid down a sacrifice bunt. Steve Garvey then reached on an error scoring the run. Chicago NL was retired without difficulty in the bottom of the 13th. The winning pitcher was Lance Rautzhan(3-0) who allowed no runs in 1/3 of an inning. Terry Forster got the save, his 15th. Bruce Sutter(5-2) was charged with the loss in relief. It was a tough loss for him as he did not allow an earned run in his 1 and 2/3 innings of work.
