Larry Hisle hammered his 30th homer of the season and drove in two runs to raise his RBI total to 101 as the Brewers beat the Twins, 3-0, behind the three-hit pitching of Andy Replogle. Hisle's homer off Gary Serum in the fourth inning followed a double by Cecil Cooper. The Brewers then added their other tally on a three-base error by Hosken Powell, who dropped Ben Oglivie's fly, and a double by Robin Yount. [The Sporting News]
