Three wild pitches by Jim Colborn helped the Indians defeat the Brewers, 3-2. A walk to Angel Hermoso, two Colborn wild pitches and a single by John Ellis gave the Indians their initial run in the fourth inning. John Lowenstein doubled in the eighth, took third on a sacrifice and scored on Colborn's third wild pitch. The Indians then added what proved to be their winning run on singles by George Hendrick, Chris Chambliss and Charlie Spikes. [The Sporting News]
