The Athletics took advantage of Pete Broberg's wildness and scored three runs without the benefit of a hit in the second inning to defeat the Brewers, 3-1. Broberg walked Billy Williams, hit Sal Bando and Gene Tenace with successive pitches and passed Jim Holt to force in the first run. Another run scored as Phil Garner bounced into a double play and the third run counted when Robin Yount bobbled a grounder by Bert Campaneris. The A's collected only three hits.
