Notes & reviews

  • Prior to the game Al Cowens and Ed Farmer brought out the lineup cards and shook hands; Cowens had attacked Farmer earlier in the season, resulting in a 7-game suspension; this was a carryover from 1979 when a pitch from Farmer had broken Cowens' jaw
  • Debut game for Fran Mullins
  • Fran Mullens left with back problem
