Fred Lynn drove in five runs and rookie Mike Witt survived a rocky first inning in the Angels' 8-4 triumph over the Brewers. Witt yielded all four Milwaukee runs in the first, including a three-run homer by Ben Oglivie.

The Brewers only got two singles the rest of the way as the 20-year-old righthander completed his second straight start. Lynn laced a three-run homer in the bottom of the first, and after Brian Downing and Bobby Clark rapped run-scoring singles in the third to give the Angels the lead, Lynn smashed a solo homer in the fifth.
