. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Scattering 10 hits, Bill Travers went the route as the Brewers pasted the White Sox, 10-1. The first Brewer run came in the opening frame when Paul Molitor singled, stole second, moved to third on a flyout and scored on a single by Ben Oglivie.

In the second stanza, Dave May walked and scored on a triple by Robin Yount. Walks to Jim Gantner and Charlie Moore loaded the bases and Yount scored on Molitor's fielder's choice grounder. The Brewers got five in the eighth on singles by Gorman Thomas, Yount and Gantner, a double by Molitor and two-run homer by Don Money. [The Sporting News]
