A four-run rally in the eighth inning lifted the Brewers to an 11-8 victory over the Orioles. Milwaukee was behind, 8-7, going into the eighth, but tied the game on singles by Robin Yount, Cecil Cooper and Ben Oglivie. After Tim Stoddard replaced Tippy Martinez on the hill for the Birds, a single by Gorman Thomas plated Cooper with the go-ahead marker. One out later, a double by Jim Gantner drove home two more runs. [The Sporting News]
