Becoming the league's first 16-game winner, Ron Guidry fired a three-hitter as the Yankees whitewashed the Brewers, 9-0. The Yanks scored twice in the first inning on an RBI single by Lou Piniella and RBI groundout by Graig Nettles.

They added three more in the third on a two-run single by Chris Chambliss and a fielder's choice grounder by Roy White, and made it 8-0 in the fourth on a two-run double by Chambliss and RBI groundout by Piniella. [The Sporting News]
