Lou Piniella rapped three singles and drove in a run and Paul Blair added a two-run homer to pace the Yankees to a 3-1 conquest of the Brewers. Blair's blast followed a leadoff single by Graig Nettles in the second inning. The Brewers' lone score came in the sixth frame when Ed Romero doubled and came around on two infield outs.
