Sunday September 13, 1981
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Three pitchers combined to pitch a six-hit shutout as the Brewers defeated the Orioles, 5-0. The Brewers got all the runs they needed in the fourth inning. A single by Cecil Cooper sandwiched between walks to Paul Molitor and Ted Simmons filled the bases and Ben Oglivie drove in two runs with a single. Gorman Thomas followed with an RBI single, and a run-scoring single by Jim Gantner capped the outburst. [The Sporting News]
