Jim Gantner belted a grand slam while driving in six runs to lead the Brewers to an 8-0 whitewashing of the A's. Gantner climaxed a six-run outburst in the sixth inning with his bases-loaded smash, his first round-tripper of the year and first career grand slam. In the second frame, Gantner's run-scoring single gave Milwaukee a 1-0 lead and, in the eighth, his RBI single boosted the Brewers' advantage to 8-0. [The Sporting News]
