Sunday May 25, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Mark Brouhard, Brewers' rookie outfielder, hit his first major league homer, connecting with two men on base in the fourth inning to defeat the Twins, 3-2. Ben Oglivie and Dick Davis singled ahead of Brouhard's blast. Ken Landreaux, who had an RBI single for the Twins in the first inning, hit safely in his 25th straight game, breaking the Minnesota club record set by Lenny Green in 1961. [The Sporting News]
