. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Dave May, who hit a two-run homer in the second inning, also singled and scored in the seventh to help the Brewers end a five-game losing streak with a 3-2 victory over the Yankees. Darrell Porter was hit by a pitch before May homered. Chris Chambliss got one run back for the Yankees with a round-tripper in the second, but May's single, a sacrifice and single by Ken Berry added what proved to be the Brewers' deciding run in the seventh. The Yankees chased Jim Slaton with a run in the eighth, but Tom Murphy, relieving with two men on base, ended the threat by retiring Bill Sudakis on a fly to center field. [The Sporting News]
