With Bill Travers pitching a three-hitter, the Brewers completed a sweep of the four-game series by defeating the Orioles, 3-1. The Brewers scored twice in the second inning on four walks, a wild pitch and single by Tim Johnson before Paul Blair homered for the Orioles' lone tally in the fifth. Robin Yount's RBI single clinched matters for the Brewers in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
