. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Although Hank Aaron hit the 751st homer of his career and fourth in the last six games, plus a double and single, the Brewers lost to the Athletics, 7-4. The A's had back-to-back homers by Don Baylor and Billy Williams in the first inning before exploding for four runs in the fifth, sending 10 men to the plate and getting singles by Claudell Washington, Phil Garner and Bill North, a double by Bert Campaneris, sacrifice fly by Larry Haney and an error by George Scott.
