Over-ambitious baserunning by the Athletics proved costly in a 2-0 loss to the Brewers. Three A's, Bert Campaneris among them, were thrown out trying to steal and on another occasion Campaneris was picked off third base by Jim Colborn, who pitched a five-hitter for the Brewers.

Bob Coluccio homered in the sixth inning to pin Ken Holtzman with his first defeat since April 28. The Brewers' other run counted in the eighth on a pass to Coluccio, single by Dave May and sacrifice fly by George Scott. [The Sporting News]
