Notes
In six games against the Phillies in August and September of 1977, Reuschel allowed eight runs in six innings. His failures and those of the rest of the Cubs' bullpen, contributed to their collapse in the second-half of the season. At the midway point, Chicago was 51-30, in first place and four games ahead of the Phillies. The rest of the way, the Cubs stumbled to 31-50, finishing 20 games back of the Phillies.
