Sending 10 men to bat, the Athletics scored four runs on just three singles in the sixth inning to defeat the Brewers, 5-1. A single by Gene Tenace and three walks produced the first run and three others followed on a sacrifice fly by Bert Campaneris and singles by Joe Rudi and Reggie Jackson. Ken Holtzman, the A's winner, picked Johnny Briggs off base with the bases loaded and two out in the Brewers' half of the sixth to end a major threat to his victory.
