Mike Hegan clouted a two-run pinch-homer with one out in the bottom of 12th to give the Brewers a 6-5 victory over the White Sox, who had taken a 5-4 lead in the top of the inning on Carlos May's double and a single by Ken Henderson. Dick Allen wiped out a 1-0 Milwaukee lead -- Pedro Garcia hit a solo homer in the third -- with his 22nd homer of the season in the fourth inning, which came after Jorge Orta doubled.

The Brewers regained their edge in the sixth, scoring twice after two were out on successive singles by Johnny Briggs, Bob Coluccio and Charlie Moore after Don Money had opened the inning with a base hit. An RBI double by Pat Kelly, two walks and a sacrifice fly by May put the Sox back in front in the seventh, 4-3, but the Brewers tied it in the eighth on George Scott's triple and a sacrifice fly by Deron Johnson.
