. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Sixto Lezcano drove in four runs with a homer and two singles to lead the Brewers' 17-hit attack in a 10-8 victory over the White Sox. After the White Sox took a 3-0 lead, the Brewers tied the score in the third inning with a single by Von Joshua, double by Mike Hegan and homer by Darrell Porter. Lezcano's round-tripper snapped the tie and accounted for one of the Brewers' two runs in the sixth.

Lezcano singled in the seventh and again in the eighth to drive in three of the Brewers' final five runs. The White Sox counted twice in the eighth on a run-scoring triple by Chet Lemon and sacrifice fly by Bucky Dent before falling short in the ninth when Jim Spencer hit a homer with two men on base.
