Wednesday July 22, 1970
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Back-to-back homers by Ted Savage and Bob Burda in the fifth inning sent the Brewers on their way to a 4-1 victory over the Yankees. Bobby Bolin, who pitched a six-hitter, gave up the Yankees' run in the second inning on a triple by Danny Cater and infield out by Thurman Munson.

The Brewers used a double by Ted Kubiak and single by Mike Hegan for the tying tally in the third before Savage and Burda went into their homer act. Burda also singled in the ninth to produce the Brewers' final run. [The Sporting News]
