Friday August 15, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Sixto Lezcano and Dick Davis hit back-to-back homers in the seventh inning to lift the Brewers to a 4-1 victory over the Indians. In addition to the round-trippers, a single by Paul Molitor and double by Cecil Cooper accounted for the Brewers' run in the first inning, and their final tally counted in the ninth on doubles by Davis and Sal Bando. Three errors by Bando at third base in one inning resulted in the Indians' run off Mike Caldwell. [The Sporting News]
