. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The hitless relief pitching of Darold Knowles, after Blue Moon Odom ran into trouble in the sixth inning, enabled the Athletics to defeat the Brewers, 2-0. Johnny Briggs singled in the fourth, but that was the Brewers' only hit until the sixth when Dave May beat out a bunt to load the bases after Bill Parsons and Tommy Harper had walked.

Knowles put down that threat brilliantly, striking out Briggs, getting Bill Voss on a short fly and retiring Frank Tepedino on a grounder. The A's scored in the first on a walk to Angel Mangual and double by Dave Duncan, then subsided until the ninth when Reggie Jackson smashed a homer. [The Sporting News]
