When Bill Lee showed up for the game with strep throat, Dick Pole took over the starting spot and combined with Jim Willoughby to pitch the Red Sox to a 2-1 victory over the Brewers. The Red Sox scored the winning run in the fifth inning when Rick Miller singled and Cecil Cooper tripled. [The Sporting News] |
