A bloop double by Robin Yount leading off the ninth deprived Dennis Lamp of a no-hitter as the White Sox downed the Brewers, 5-1. Yount subsequently came around on a pair of infield outs. The only other Milwaukee runner was Cecil Cooper, who drew a first-inning walk.

The Sox scored in the second stanza when Harold Baines tripled and tallied on a sacrifice fly by Wayne Nordhagen. Baines clouted a solo homer in the the fourth. Greg Luzinski singled home a sixth-inning marker and the Sox added two runs in the seventh on an RBI double by Mike Squires and a bases-loaded walk. [The Sporting News]
