. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Homers by Von Joshua and Cecil Cooper provided support for Moose Haas, who yielded only three hits and pitched the Brewers to a 3-1 victory over the Athletics. Joshua homered in the sixth inning and Cooper connected with a man on base in the eighth before the A's spoiled Haas' bid for a shutout with a homer by Wayne Gross. [The Sporting News]
