Tuesday September 22, 1970
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Tommy Harper became the fifth player in major league history with 30 or more homers and 30 or more stolen bases in the same season as the Brewers defeated the Angels, 4-2. Jim Fregosi hit a homer for the Angels, who held a 2-0 lead before the Brewers erupted in the seventh inning. Singles by Phil Roof and Mike Hegan, followed by Ted Kubiak's forceout of Hegan, produced the first run. After the second out, Harper homered to send the Brewers ahead. A hit batsman and a double by Dave May added an insurance run.

The homer was the 30th for Harper, who also had 33 stolen bases to his credit. Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Bobby Bonds and Ken Williams of the old St. Louis Browns were the only other players with the same 30-30 combination. [The Sporting News]
