After Cecil Cooper singled in the 10th inning to break a tie, Paul Molitor drove in two runs with a triple, giving him five RBIs for the game, to seal the Brewers' 11-8 victory over the Blue Jays. Gorman Thomas walked to open the stanza and advanced on a sacrifice by Sal Bando. Following an intentional pass to Larry Hisle, Thomas scored on Cooper's hit. Sixto Lezcano forced Cooper at second before Molitor drilled his triple, driving in Hisle and Lezcano. [The Sporting News] |
