The Brewers scored two runs in the 10th inning to down the Royals, 3-1. The score was 1-1 when Robin Yount opened the 10th with a walk. Cecil Cooper followed with a sacrifice bunt that Royals catcher Darrell Porter fielded near the third base line and threw into right field, allowing Yount to come home. A double by Don Money plated Cooper with an insurance tally. George Brett socked a solo homer in two official trips to the plate to raise his average to .402. [The Sporting News]
