Jim Lonborg scattered nine hits and gained a decision over Wilbur Wood when the Brewers defeated the White Sox, 7-1. The Brewers scored their first three runs off Wood before he was removed for a pinch-hitter in the seventh inning. Two relievers yielded the Brewers' final four runs in the eighth. Ron Theobald, who scored three times, and Dave May each rapped three hits in the Brewers' attack. [The Sporting News]
