Johnny Briggs belted two homers and Pedro Garcia hit one, each with a man on base, to help power the Brewers to a 9-2 victory over the Red Sox, who were stopped on their six-game winning streak. Don Money walked ahead of Briggs' first homer of the game in the opening inning. After the Brewers added three runs in the second, Briggs homered again with George Scott on base in the sixth. Garcia's drive came with Bob Coluccio aboard in the seventh and produced the Brewers' last two runs. [The Sporting News]
