. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A pop fly by Larry Hisle was dropped by second baseman Bump Wills for an error to deliver the winning run in the Brewers' 10-inning 2-1 triumph over the Rangers. It was the fifth straight loss for the Rangers.

Charlie Moore opened the Brewer 10th by reaching first on an error by shortstop Bert Campaneris. A single by Don Money moved Moore to third. After two outs, Hisle popped to shallow right field and after Wills called off right fielder Bobby Bonds, the second sacker dropped the ball, allowing Moore to score. The Rangers led, 1-0, going into the ninth but Hisle hit a homer to send the game into extra innings. [The Sporting News]
