Marty Pattin allowed only three hits and one run in 6 2/3 innings of relief and gained his first victory since June 27 when the Royals defeated the Brewers, 8-5. The Brewers knocked out starter Bruce Dal Canton in the third after building up a 4-0 lead. The Royals rallied for the tying quartet in their half of the third. One run scored on a pass with the bases loaded and another on a single by Hal McRae before Orlando Cepeda cracked a two-run double.

The Royals smashed the tie in the fifth. Fred Patek doubled and scored on a single by Amos Otis. McRae then supplied the deciding blow, hitting a two-run homer. The Brewers' only run off Pattin came with two out in the ninth on a round-tripper by Bob Hansen. [The Sporting News]
