Scattering seven hits and pitching his 13th complete game, Mike Caldwell hurled the Brewers to a 6-1 triumph over the White Sox. The Brewers scored twice in the sixth inning. Robin Yount led off with a triple and scored on a single by Sal Bando. Bando moved to second on an infield out and Ben Oglivie received an intentional pass.

The strategy backfired when the next batter, Dick Davis, singled up the middle to plate Bando. The Brewers added four more tallies in the seventh on a bases-loaded walk to Bando, a wild pitch, RBI single by Larry Hisle and sacrifice fly by Oglivie. [The Sporting News]
