Saturday August 26, 1972
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
The White Sox, after winning the first game of a doubleheader, 3-1, in 13 innings, collected only three hits off Jim Colborn and Frank Linzy in the second game and lost to the Brewers, 4-0. The White Sox opened the scoring in the lidlifter with a run in the fourth inning on singles by Dick Allen and Ed Spiezio around an infield out. The Brewers tied the score in the ninth when Brock Davis walked and Joe Lahoud tripled. Allen singled with one out in the 13th. Carlos May grounded to Ken Sanders and when Rick Auerbach missed the throw to second, Allen advanced to third on the error. Mike Andrews hit a sacrifice fly to score Allen. Spiezio followed with single to drive in May.

Colborn gave up a single by Allen in the seventh inning of the nightcap for the only hit off his deliveries until May and Jay Johnstone singled with one away in the ninth. Linzy took over and quickly retired the next two batters. George Scott hit a single, double and triple for the Brewers and had a hand in all their runs, driving in two and scoring two.
