. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Yankees extended their winning streak to six games by scoring three runs in the 12th inning to beat the Brewers, 4-1. Singles by Gus Gil and Tommy Harper, around a sacrifice, produced a Brewers' run in the third. The Yankees tied the score in the seventh when Gene Michael walked and Horace Clarke and Thurman Munson doubled.

In the 12th Roy White and Curt Blefary drew passes from Bob Humphreys. Following a sacrifice, Bobby Murcer and Jerry Kenney also walked to force in the tie-breaking tally. After John Gelnar relieved, a single by Michael and a sacrifice fly by Jim Lyttle added two extra runs. [The Sporting News]
