Coming from behind in a five-hour, 14-minute game, the Brewers scored twice in the 17th inning to defeat the Indians, 4-3. Gary Alexander hit a two-run homer for the Indians in the second. The Brewers, after picking up the run in their half on a single by Ben Oglivie, ground-rule double by Robin Yount and infield single by Charlie Moore, tied the score in the third when Don Money hit for the circuit. The game then proceeded scoreless until the 17th when the Indians took the lead with singles by Ron Pruitt and pinch-hitter Rick Manning around an infield out by Duane Kuiper. In the Brewers' half, Moore started the rally with a single, Paul Molitor walked and Money tied the score with a double. After an intentional pass to Cecil Cooper, Gorman Thomas hit a sacrifice fly for the winning run. [The Sporting News] |
