Monday September 15, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Rookies Fred Lynn and Jim Rice each collected his 100th RBI and Dwight Evans drove in four more to lead the Red Sox past the Brewers, 9-7. Boston scored four times in the first and second frames, Evans driving in a pair in each inning. The Brewers, who knocked out winner Roger Moret in the seventh, got solo homers from Robin Yount and George Scott, while making it close with four runs in the final three innings.
