1979 Final - Cont'd Playoffs

Again this year the sim playoffs were markedly different than IRL 1979. It got the last gasp of the Big Red Machine correct (even the 0-3 in the NLCS), but alas, no "We Are Family" Pirates team.

And check out the Expos and KC World Series! Talk about small markets...

04/23/1980 - Cubs Continue Skid Thanks to Reitz, Cardinals

The St. Louis Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs, 9-5, at Wrigley Field. The win was largely due to the efforts of third baseman Ken Reitz, who captured player of the game honors. He went 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 4. The Cubs, now 1-10, continue their poor start.

Reitz had a key at-bat for St. Louis early in the game. With runners on 1st and 2nd, he hit a 2-run double. It was his 1st double of the season and gave St. Louis an early 2-0 lead.

04/25/1980 - Cubs Subdue Pittsburgh, 5-3

The Chicago Cubs bested the Pittsburgh Pirates by a score of 5-3, with first baseman Dave Kingman getting the main credit. On the day, Kingman went 1-2 with a home run off LHP John Candelaria and 3 walks. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Cubs. The winner was Dennis Lamp, who threw 114 pitches over 8 innings. The right-hander was charged with 3 runs on 7 hits. Bruce Sutter locked down his 2nd save.

Mike Vail went 1-4 with a walk for Chicago. The 28-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring walk off Enrique Romo. It was his 3rd walk of the season.

"I really like what we did out there today," Kingman said after the game.

Chicago is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 2nd in 12 games.

04/26/1980 - Pirates Edge Past Cubs, 4-3

Wrigley Field was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Chicago Cubs.

The Pittsburgh Pirates picked up a win at Wrigley Field, knocking off the Chicago Cubs, 4-3. Starting pitcher Bert Blyleven, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason why. The win was Jim Bibby's in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Willie Hernandez took the loss for Chicago.

John Milner, who is tied for 8th in the NL in home runs with 3, chipped in for Pittsburgh with a solo home run in the top of the 14th. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 1 run batted in.

"I'm just happy to help the team win," Blyleven told the Pittsburgh Gazette.

Pittsburgh, now 10-5, has played well in the early going.

04/27/1980 - Pirates Top Cubs Behind Robinson, 5-3 Despite Kingman Homer

The Pittsburgh Pirates topped the Chicago Cubs, 5-3, in NL action at Wrigley Field. The player of the game was Pittsburgh pitcher and Ashland, California native Don Robinson. Chicago, at 2-12, is off to a dreadful start in 1980.

RHP Robinson was in midseason form against the Cubs. He allowed 2 earned runs on 4 hits, including a homer by Kingman, and fanned 10 in his 8-inning effort.
