. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Kevin Kobel, 20-year-old rookie lefthander, pitched a four-hitter and posted a 4-0 victory as the Brewers completed the sweep of a twi-night doubleheader after beating the Yankees, 3-2, in 10 innings. Doc Medich, who had won five straight games for the Yankees, was the loser in the opener when the Brewers scored in the 10th on a pass to George Scott and singles by Johnny Briggs and Mike Hegan. Tom Murphy, who pitched three hitless innings in relief of Jim Colborn, was the Brewers' winner.

In the nightcap, singles by Pedro Garcia and Dave May around an infield out started the Brewers' scoring in the third inning. A single by Scott, double by Briggs, infield out by Hegan and safe squeeze bunt by Don Money added a pair in the fourth. Hegan singled in the sixth, advanced on a wild pitch and counted the last run on a single by Charlie Moore. [The Sporting News]
