A double by Ellie Rodriguez and single by Bob Heise in the ninth inning gave the Brewers a 3-2 victory over the Royals. The Brewers took the lead in the first with two unearned runs resulting from a pair of errors by Freddie Patek. A double by Paul Splittorff in the third and another two-bagger by Lou Piniella in the sixth led to the Royals' tying tallies.
