. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Duke Sims smashed two homers for the second successive game and drove in four runs to supply most of the Indians' power in a 7-6 victory over Brewers. Sims connected with two men on base in the first inning to start the Indians' scoring and then broke a 4-4 tie with a solo shot in the third. The Tribe added two tallies in the sixth on a double by Ted Uhlaender, singles by Vada Pinson and Tony Horton and a grounder by Ray Fosse. Tommy Harper and Ted Savage each drove in two runs for Brewers, Harper's RBIs coming on a homer. [The Sporting News]
