After giving up three runs in first inning, Moose Haas overcame that shaky start and pitched the Brewers to a 7-4 victory over the White Sox. The rookie gave up only two his in the last eight innings and retired 18 of the last 19 batters, including the final 10 in a row.

The Brewers began chopping into the deficit with two runs in their half of the first on a pass to Don Money and homer by Sixto Lezcano. Money singled and Lezcano doubled in the third when the Brewers took the lead with three runs. Money homered in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
