Thursday August 30, 1979
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
A bases-loaded walk in the 12th inning forced home the decisive run as the Brewers shaded the White Sox, 4-3. Paul Molitor led off the stanza with a single and, two outs later, Gorman Thomas received an intentional walk. A single by Ben Oglivie loaded the bases and Lezcano drew a pass on a 3-2 pitch.
