. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Three pitchers -- Jim Slaton, Marcelino Lopez and Ken Sanders -- combined on a four-hitter as the Brewers defeated the White Sox, 2-0. A single by Rick Auerbach for his first major league hit, a pass to Danny Walton and double by Tommy Harper produced the Brewers' first run in the seventh inning. The other tally counted in the ninth on two walks and a single by Ted Savage. [The Sporting News]
