A home run by Sal Bando was the difference in the game as the Brewers hung on for a 4-3 triumph over the Red Sox. The solo clout came in the sixth inning and gave the Brewers a 4-1 lead. The first Brewer run came in the opening frame when Don Money doubled, went to third on a single by Bando and scored when Jim Rice bobbled the ball.

Jim Wohiford upped the margin to 2-0 in the second with a bases-empty round-tripper. In the fifth frame, Robin Yount walked and came around on a single, a sacrifice and a sacrifice fly by Paul Molitor. [The Sporting News]
