Game #306 - Chicago Cubs, 1 @ New York Mets, 6
The Cubs took a 1-0 lead in the second inning when utility infielder Dave Owen, spelling Larry Bowa, poked a single to plate Ron Cey. But it was all Mets after that. Most of the damage came in the fourth inning, when they scored four runs on a bases loaded double by Kevin Chapman and an RBI single from Jose Oquendo. Darryl Strawberry added a solo shot in the eighth to cap the damage at six runs. Meanwhile, "El Sid" scattered eight hits and four walks while nearly pitching a complete game. He also fanned the Cubs ten times in that span.
