Luzinski powers Phillies over the Mets

Game 1: Philadelphia 6 New York 4
W: Ruthven (8-0)  L: Espinosa (8-10)
Ruthven was cruising along until the 6th when the Mets scored 3 runs to tie the game.  Greg Luzinski untied it in the 8th with his 2nd homer of the game off Espinosa.

Game 2: New York 5 Philadelphia 4 (10 innings)
W: Lockwood (5-4)  L: McGraw (4-1)
Both starters (Hausman & Carlton) were effective, but neither bullpen could hold the lead.  Of the 6 relievers who entered the game, Bernard was the only one who did not allow a run.

Game 3: Philadelphia 9 New York 7
W: Reed (6-1)  L: Lockwood (5-5)
More of the same as the bullpens gave up 13 combined runs over the final 2-1/2 innings.  Luzinski's 2 run shot off of Lockwood proved to be the game winner.
