Wednesday June 25, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

George Scott hit a pair of solo homers, accounting for the Brewers' sixth and seventh runs in a 7-6 victory over the Tigers. Bill Freehan rapped a two-run homer for the Tigers in the second inning, but the Brewers came back with three runs in the third. Singles by Sixto Lezcano, Bill Sharp and Pedro Garcia produced the first tally. After Don Money bounced out, Aurelio Rodriguez threw low to the plate on a grounder by Robin Yount, allowing Sharp to score. Garcia reached third and worked a double steal with Yount for the third run.

A single by Sharp and double by Garcia plated two more tallies for the Brewers in the fourth. Scott then led off the fifth with his first homer of the game and followed with his other round-tripper in the seventh for the deciding run. [The Sporting News]
