Back-to-back homers by Don Money and Sixto Lezcano highlighted a five-run first inning that powered the Brewers to a 9-1 victory over the Orioles. Robin Yount began the Milwaukee attack with a one-out single, moved to second on a walk to Cecil Cooper and scored on a single by Dick Davis. Money then connected for a three-run round-tripper and Lezcano followed with a solo blast. [The Sporting News]
