Tuesday September 9, 1980
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Roy Smalley went 4-for-5 and Ron Jackson slugged a three-run double to pace a 22-hit attack that carried the Twins to a 15-2 thrashing of the Brewers. Smalley singled home the Twins' first run with two out in the first inning and the Twins registered six tallies in the fourth on eight singles. Jackson's two-bagger capped another six-run outburst in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
