Luis Tiant and Jim Willoughby combined on a five-hit shutout, while Denny Doyle and Cecil Cooper provided the scoring power, as the Red Sox defeated the Brewers, 3-0. Doyle tripled after Rick Burleson was safe on an error to drive in the first run in the third inning. Cooper hit a homer following a double by Jim Rice in seventh.
