. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Reggie Cleveland and Juan Marichal were the winners, but Diego Segui finished both games of a twi-night doubleheader as the Red Sox defeated the Brewers, 6-3 and 6-0. Jim Slaton's wildness helped the Red Sox take a 3-1 lead in the opener before they added another run off Bill Travers in the fifth inning on a single by Cecil Cooper, a wild pitch and single by Dwight Evans. Cleveland was knocked out after giving up a two-run homer by Darrell Porter in the seventh. Segui held the Brewers scoreless the rest of the way while the Red Sox iced their victory with two runs in the ninth.

Marichal yielded only two hits in seven innings in the nightcap before turning the mound over to Segui. Evans was the big man at bat for the Red Sox, with three hits and four RBIs. After hitting a double and scoring on a single by Rico Petrocelli in the fourth inning, Evans drove in a run with a single in the fifth and homered with two men on base in the seventh.
