Ken Brett allowed only two hits in 7 1/3 innings and also helped himself at bat with a single and double as the Brewers defeated the Athletics, 3-1. Brett drove in one run with a single in the second inning and scored after hitting a double in the seventh. Ken Sanders relieved the Brewers' tiring lefty in the eighth and gave up one hit while finishing the game. [The Sporting News]
