Rain interrupted the first game in the third inning of the first game, sending Don Cardwell to the showers, but barely affecting Bret Saberhagen who worked into the seventh inning. Howard Johnson hit his first homer of the season off Bill Short to open the scoring in the fifth. 92 added a run in the top of the seventh but 68 came back with three in the bottom of the fram, two unearned. That was the scoring, Saberhagen took the loss and Cal Koonce earned the win. 
Tom Seaver started for 68 in the second game and his team backed him with 8 runs. He only needed one of the runs as he tossed a complete game shutout. 8-0
Sid Fernandez allowed only one run in a complete game performance in game three. However he was opposed by Jerry Koosman who won his fourth game of the season throwing a 4 hit shutout.
Dwight Gooden opposed Nolan Ryan in the final game of the set. Although Ryan would go the distance, he gave up solo homers to Bobby Bonilla and Chico Walker. Gooden need relief help to earn his first win 3-2 (1-3)
