The Athletics smashed three homers in the first inning to produce six runs and walloped the Brewers, 11-1. Reggie Jackson started the bombardment with a three-run blow. Deron Johnson added a solo swat and Ted Kubiak completed the explosion with a two-run drive.

Jackson accounted for two more RBIs with a double in the sixth when the A's had another big inning, scoring their remaining five runs. The Brewers avoided a shutout with a triple by Johnny Briggs and double by Darrell Porter in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
