Monday June 23, 1975
. . . where the 1970s live forever!
The Brewers collected 15 hits, including a three-run, second-inning homer by Darrell Porter and four safeties by Hank Aaron, while pinning an 8-4 defeat on the Tigers. Porter connected following singles by Bobby Darwin and Sixto Lezcano. Milwaukee made it 5-0 in the third on an error by right fielder Leon Roberts, who dropped Bill Sharp's fly, a triple by Aaron and Lezcano's second hit of the game.

Detroit narrowed the lead to one run on Mickey Stanley's RBI single in the fourth, Jack Pierce's two-run homer in the fifth and Dan Meyer's run-scoring single in the sixth. But the Brewers struck for three runs in the eighth, Aaron driving home one with his third straight single, to lock up the victory for reliever Tom Hausman, who came on in the sixth and blanked the Tigers the rest of the way.
