. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A seventh-inning single by Don Money drove in Charlie Moore to break a 1-1 tie and lift the Brewers to a 2-1 decision over the A's. Moore reached first on a single and was sacrificed to second by Jim Gantner.

Mike Caldwell pitched his fifth complete game of the season for the Brewers. The A's run came on a double by Gary Alexander and single by Miguel Dilone in the third inning. Robin Yount drove in the Brewers' tying run with a groundout in the fourth. [The Sporting News]
