. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Brewers called upon three pitchers, Bill Champion, Eduardo Rodriguez and Tom Murphy, who combined on a six-hitter and shut out the Twins, 3-0. Champion, who gained his first victory since May 24, was lifted with two out in the sixth inning after yielding singles by Larry Hisle and Tony Oliva. Rodriguez retired Bobby Darwin to end the threat.

After Rodriguez blanked the Twins in the seventh and eighth, Murphy took over and retired the side in order in the ninth. The Brewers scored two of their runs in the second inning on a pair of walks and a double by Dave May. The other run did not come until the eighth when Tim Johnson was safe on an error and scored on singles by Don Money and Robin Yount. [The Sporting News]
