A sacrifice fly by George Scott with the bases loaded in the 10th inning gave the Red Sox a 6-5 victory over the Brewers in a game marked by six homers. The first five Red Sox runs counted on round-trippers. Billy Conigliaro hit two, driving in three runs, and Reggie Smith had one with a man on base.

Danny Walton, Jerry McNertney and Tommy Harper homered for the Brewers, Harper's two-run blow tying the score in the ninth. Carl Yastrzemski singled for the Red Sox in the 10th and stopped at third on a double by Tony Conigliaro. After an intentional pass to Rico Petrocelli, Scott smacked his sacrifice fly.
