Bobby Murcer singled in the game's only run in the first inning and Doc Medich unfurled a nifty five-hitter for his 13th victory in 20 decisions as the Yankees beat the Brewers, 1-0. The New York righthander fanned six and walked four in hurling his second shutout of the year. Clyde Wright yielded the tally when Roy White singled, advanced on Elliott Maddox' sacrifice and scooted home on Murcer's base hit. [The Sporting News]
