The Brewers rallied for three runs in the eighth inning, two of them resulting from an error by Orlando Ramirez, to defeat the Angels, 4-2. Don Money doubled and scored on an infield hit by George Scott and sacrifice fly by Darrell Porter to knot the count at 2-2. Then, after a double by Sixto Lezcano, Kurt Bevacqua grounded to Ramirez, who threw wildly to first base, allowing Scott and Lezcano to score. [The Sporting News]
