Leading both leagues in saves, Bill Campbell picked up his sixth of the season with 2 2/3 innings of one-hit pitching as the Twins eked out a 6-5 victory over the Brewers. Larry Hisle and Eric Soderholm hit homers for the Twins to help them build up a 6-2 lead over the Brewers, who had a round-tripper by George Scott. However, Dick Woodson almost blew the lead, giving up three runs to the Brewers in the seventh. Don Money batted in a pair with a double and scored himself on a single by Johnny Briggs before Campbell arrived to save the game. [The Sporting News]
