Jeff Burroughs had 2 base hits and 2 RBI as the Atlanta Braves won in dramatic fashion over the Los Angeles Dodgers by a score of 7 to 5 at Dodger Stadium. Atlanta erupted with the game winning runs in the 9th inning when they scored 4 runs on 3 hits. The critical plate appearance was by Burroughs who deflated the spirits of the home town crowd when he delivered a base-hit plating two runs. Atlanta and Los Angeles each finished the night with 10 hits. Preston Hanna(1-0) got the win allowing no runs in 3 innings. Hanna got help from Rick Camp who was credited with his 2nd save. Steve Howe(0-1) took the loss in relief. Billy Vanson was understandably not very talkative after his team's tough loss. He quickly showered and changed and when asked about the game had a terse, yet polite response, 'Hey fellows, that game was a heart-breaker to lose. Our guys gave it their all and played well - fate just wasn't smilin' on us tonight' BOXSCORE: 1980 Atlanta Braves At 1980 Los Angeles Dodgers 4/14/1980 Braves AB R H RBI AVG Dodgers AB R H RBI AVG J.Royster 3B 4 1 1 0 .167 D.Lopes 2B 4 1 2 1 .281 B.Bailor SS 4 1 0 0 .167 T.Puhl CF 4 1 2 0 .242 J.Burroughs LF 4 3 2 2 .333 P.Guerrero RF 4 1 3 2 .625 G.Matthews RF 5 0 4 2 .313 R.Cey 3B 4 0 1 0 .200 D.Murphy CF 4 0 1 2 .273 K.Landreaux LF 3 0 0 0 .100 G.Hubbard 2B 3 1 0 0 .258 C-D.Baker LF 1 0 0 0 .111 C.Chambliss 1B 4 0 0 0 .250 S.Garvey 1B 4 1 1 0 .242 B.Benedict C 4 1 2 0 .448 J.Morrison SS 3 1 1 2 .300 L.McWilliams P 1 0 0 1 .000 B-M.Mendoza SS 0 0 0 0 .143 A-D.McKay PH 1 0 0 0 .500 E-C.Lemon PH 1 0 0 0 .280 P.Hanna P 0 0 0 0 ---- B.Martinez C 3 0 0 0 .222 D-R.Auerbach PH 1 0 0 0 .500 F-J.Nolan PH 1 0 0 0 .444 R.Camp P 0 0 0 0 .000 J.Reuss P 3 0 0 0 .200 S.Howe P 0 0 0 0 ---- D.Kinney P 0 0 0 0 ---- -- -- -- --- -- -- -- --- Totals 35 7 10 7 Totals 35 5 10 5 A-Pinch Hit For McWilliams In 6th Inning B-Subbed Defensively (SS) For Morrison In 8th Inning C-Subbed Defensively (LF) For Landreaux In 8th Inning D-Pinch Hit For Hanna In 9th Inning E-Pinch Hit For Mendoza In 9th Inning F-Pinch Hit For Martinez In 9th Inning Braves.......... 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 4 - 7 10 0 Dodgers......... 1 3 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 - 5 10 1 Braves (6-2) IP H R ER BB SO HR PC ERA SCORESHEET L.McWilliams 5 8 5 5 0 5 3 87 9.00 A1 C5 P.Hanna WIN(1-0) 3 2 0 0 0 1 0 24 0.00 C6 D5 R.Camp SAVE(2nd) 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 10 5.40 D6 Totals 9 10 5 5 0 6 3 Dodgers (3-5) IP H R ER BB SO HR PC ERA SCORESHEET J.Reuss 8 1/3 8 5 4 4 6 0 126 4.41 A1 E1 S.Howe LOSS(0-1) BS(1st) 0 1/3 2 2 2 1 0 0 14 6.75 E2 E5 D.Kinney 0 1/3 0 0 0 1 0 0 8 6.75 E6 Totals 9 10 7 6 6 6 0 ATTENDANCE- 36,564 DATE- Monday, April 14th 1980 TIME- Night T- 2:52 LEFT ON BASE- Braves: 9 Dodgers: 3 DOUBLE PLAYS- Braves: 2 Dodgers: 0 ERRORS- T.Puhl DOUBLES- G.Matthews(3rd), T.Puhl(2nd), R.Cey(3rd), S.Garvey(3rd) HOME RUNS- D.Lopes(3rd), P.Guerrero(2nd), J.Morrison(1st) SACRIFICE FLIES- D.Murphy, L.McWilliams WALKS- J.Royster, B.Bailor, J.Burroughs, G.Hubbard-2, C.Chambliss STRIKE OUTS- J.Royster, B.Bailor, D.Murphy, G.Hubbard-2, D.McKay, D.Lopes, P.Guerrero, K.Landreaux, B.Martinez, J.Reuss-2 GIDP- T.Puhl One run was the difference at Dodger Stadium as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Atlanta Braves 6 to 5.
