Bill North's one-out, bases-loaded sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth gave the Athletics a 2-1 win over the Brewers. Tommy Harper scored the winning run after pinch-running for Sal Bando, who walked as the leadoff batter in the ninth.

Harper moved to third on a bloop double by Phil Garner and, after Bert Campaneris was intentionally walked to load the bases, scored on North's sacrifice fly. Rollie Fingers struck out four of six batters for the relief victory. The Brewers' run came on Charlie Moore's first major league homer. [The Sporting News]
