1979 marks the 45th anniversary of the great game between the Cubs and Phillies. The date was May 17, 1979, the location was Wrigley Field in Chicago, and the wind was blowing out at 17-18 miles/hour. Both starting pitchers (Phillies - Randy Lerch, Cubs - Dennis Lamp) only last 1/3 of an inning and the score was 7-6 after the 1st inning was completed. The teams combined for 50 hits of which 11 were home runs. Our guests are Rawly Eastwick (the game's winning pitcher) and Chris Wheeler (broadcast team) to represent the Phillies, along with Barry Foote (catcher) and Mike Vail (RF) to represent the Cubs. We hope you enjoy this inside look back 45 years ago at this wild and crazy game.
