. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Combining on a four-hitter, John Denny and Victor Cruz pitched the Indians to a 5-0 triumph, snapping the Brewers' six-game winning skein. Cliff Johnson smacked a solo homer in the fourth inning and Jorge Orta blasted a two-run round-tripper in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
