Staked to a 4-0 lead, Lew Krausse pitched the Brewers to a 4-1 victory over the Twins. The Brewers jumped on Jim Perry for three runs in the first inning on a double by Russ Snyder, single by Dave May, pass to Tito Francona, single by Bob Burda and a fielder's choice.

Perry was lifted after Phil Roof singled and Tommy Harper walked in the second. Russ Snyder singled off reliever Tom Hall for the Brewers' last hit of the game, driving in their final run. Krausse retired first the 16 batters before yielding a single by Rich Reese in the fifth. The Twins' three other hits produced their run in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
