The '''1980 [[Montreal Expos]]''' season was the 12th season in franchise history. The Expos were tied with the [[Nationals–Phillies rivalry|division rival]] [[1980 Philadelphia Phillies season|Philadelphia Phillies]] in the standings entering the final weekend of the {{mlby|1980}} season with a three game series set between the two clubs at [[Olympic Stadium (Montreal)|Olympic Stadium]]. On October 4, with the Phillies holding a one-game lead in the standings, and with the score tied at four heading to the tenth, [[Mike Schmidt]] hit a blast deep into the seats in left field to give the Phillies a 6–4 lead and ultimate win to clinch the [[National League East]]. This was the Expos closest shot at making the postseason in their brief 12 year history.

The 1980 Montreal Expos season was the 12th season in franchise history. The Expos were tied with the division rival Philadelphia Phillies in the standings entering the final weekend of the 1980 season with a three game series set between the two clubs at Olympic Stadium. On October 4, with the Phillies holding a one-game lead in the standings, and with the score tied at four heading to the tenth, Mike Schmidt hit a blast deep into the seats in left field to give the Phillies a 6–4 lead and ultimate win to clinch the National League East. This was the Expos closest shot at making the postseason in their brief 12 year history.

Offseason

[edit]

Spring training

[edit]

In 1980, the Expos held spring training at City Island Ball Park in Daytona Beach, Florida, for the final time. It was their eighth season there. For spring training the following season, they would return to West Palm Beach Municipal Stadium in West Palm Beach, Florida, where they previously had trained from 1969 through 1972.

Regular season

[edit]

On June 8, during a doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals, the Expos played against two different Cardinals managers: Ken Boyer, who was fired between games, and his replacement, Jack Krol.
