Bill Travers, who was knocked out in the second inning of the previous day's game, returned to the mound and pitched the Brewers to a 7-3 victory for a split of a doubleheader with the Red Sox, who won the opener, 6-3. The Red Sox trailed in the first game, 2-0, before picking up a run on a double by Bernie Carbo in the sixth inning. Then in the seventh, Denny Doyle singled, took third on a single by Carl Yastrzemski and scored the tying run on a forceout by Fred Lynn. Carlton Fisk followed with a double, driving in Lynn with the go-ahead tally. Three more runs in the ninth clinched the verdict.
