A pair of five-run innings carried the Yankees to a 10-7 victory over the Brewers, who lost despite a grand-slam homer by Gorman Thomas. The Yankees went on their first scoring outburst in the second inning with five runs on four singles and three walks, including two with the bases loaded. Thomas hit his homer off Rudy May in the fourth after Hank Aaron and Charlie Moore had singled and Tommy Bianco had walked to load the bases.

The Brewers went ahead with two more runs in the fifth, but the Yankees broke away with their second five-run inning in the sixth. Kerry Dineen and Walt Williams singled and both raced home on a double by Ron Blomberg. Thurman Munson walked and Graig Nettles then climaxed the scoring with a three-run homer. [The Sporting News]
