. . . where the 1970s live forever!
Completing the three-game series sweep, the Blue Jays thumped the Brewers, 8-2. The Jays scored the first run of the game in the fifth inning on a sacrifice fly by Alfredo Griffin and then exploded for five runs in the sixth. Singles by Rick Bosetti, Al Woods and Otto Velez produced one run and Willie Upshaw followed with a two-run double. Barry Bonnell then climaxed the rally with a two-run homer. [The Sporting News]
