The Brewers smashed three homers among their 12 hits and also took advantage of five errors to score six unearned runs in rolling over the Indians, 14-2. Roberto Pena, Tommy Harper and Danny Walton hit Brewers' homers. Harper's smash, with two men on base in the fifth inning, was his 25th of season and tied the Seattle-Milwaukee club record set by Don Mincher in 1969. Vada Pinson and Duke Sims homered for the Indians' runs off Lew Krausse. [The Sporting News] |
